Tom Sheppard<p>I would really like to get off of OWC's SoftRAID because they seem to have problems with Apple's OS migrations, and they want an absurd amount of money for the subscription when they don't fix crashing bugs that have been around for years.</p><p>I'm considering running OpenZFS in an Ubuntu VM on my M4 Mac mini only because I've heard the macOS version requires a kext, which Apple is trying to kill off, and SIP changes.</p><p><a href="https://twit.social/tags/OWC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OWC</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/SoftRAID" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoftRAID</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/OpenZFS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenZFS</span></a> <a href="https://twit.social/tags/macOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>macOS</span></a></p>
Tom Sheppard<p>Wow, do I ever regret buying <a href="https://twit.social/tags/OWC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OWC</span></a>'s <a href="https://twit.social/tags/SoftRAID" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SoftRAID</span></a>. It lost track of one drive forcing me to initialize and rebuild it. While rebuilding, it bitched about another drive that kept disconnecting. Once the rebuild finished, I swapped enclosures (different manufacturer) for the supposedly disconnecting drive. SoftRAID didn't know anything about the drive forcing me to reinitialize it and rebuild yet again … that takes days for an 8 TB drive. Worst <a href="https://twit.social/tags/RAID" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RAID</span></a> software ever.</p>
