So, in this case, once you search for something and you have let's say 500 results, VirtualDJ will ask from the drive to provide the file dates of all those files. "File Date" is not stored in the database. There's only one catch though: If you have "File Date" column visible on your search results list, then VirtualDJ will try to read the file date for all the search results it displays. Therefore performing a search should NOT have any effect on your drive usage. Finally: When VirtualDJ does a search, it actually searches it's own database, not the drive itself. It's just not common enough for a SSD to behave like this. However that doesn't exclude SSDs from suffering the same issue. Of course mechanical drives are more likely to cause such issues from SSDs due to the fact that the have to spin their surface and needles in order to operate. That's usually when the forthmentioned problem occurs. However if you use a non-powered USB hub, it is possible that this peak among with some other device drawing power to exceed the peak of USB and therefore cause the drive to briefly disconnect. Usually this peak is under the maximum draw that USB port can offer. In general, it is possible that when a drive tries to operate after long periods of inactivity to create a power draw peak. However, it has to do with self powered external drives that are powered from the USB bus. So far, that shouldn't be news to any MAC user, and this does not have anything to do with VirtualDJ. When that happens, your MAC may need a lot of time until it checks and prepares the hard drive to be used again. MAC's don't like drive disconnections without "Ejecting" them first.
