The latest macOS 26 Tahoe beta introduces new icons for external drives, network shares, and removable disk images, transitioning from old hard drive icons to updated SSD representations. Disk Utility now features a wrench icon tightening an Apple-branded bolt, while all associated drive icons within it have also been modernized. This change signifies the shift from HDD to SSD technology, highlighting Apple's move towards utilizing SSDs as primary boot disks since the introduction of the MacBook Air in 2008, which marked the beginning of this transition.
The new beta also updates the icons for external drives, network shares, and removable disk images, replacing the previous HDD icons with new SSD-esque designs.
Disk Utility has been revamped to include a new wrench logo and updated icons that reflect modernized SSD designs, moving away from traditional HDD icons.
