SDErrorDomain error 108 on M1 Mac Mini I have a M1 Mac Mini with an internal Apple SSD and an external non-Apple SSD in a Hagibis USB-C hub with dual drive enclosure. I was successfully running MacOS 12.2.1 off the external SSD. But when I tried to update to 12.5.1 the installer seems to finish normally but I cannot boot from the external SSD. The error message I get is shown in the title for this post. About a year ago members of this community were having a similar problem but the solution was to enable starting from and external drive in Startup Security settings. Unfortunately, that option seems to have disappeared in 12.5.1. It seems the installer has a full clean installation of 12.5.1 but the Mac won't allow me to boot from the external SSD as before. Does anyone have any suggestions for how to fix this problem?

After several tries I can confirm that it can by connecting the SSD to the USB A port. This solved the problem.
