I also would like to see video RAM instead of the M1’s shared RAM, which sure is fast, but straight video ram is going to be faster, and better for high end.

Of course I am on the side of wanting support for PCI based GPU’s, as Apple has does not have any experience making high end pro graphics cards, and I would be much happier having that than a ramped up iPad chip, unless they really ramp it up significantly. It is a powerful machine, and it will answer the question of if Apple is going to have external GPU’s or rely on their on chip M1 Graphics for their Pro machines. It works perfectly on my 2018 Mac Mini running Big Sur - very simple plug & play as Im not using the bundled SoftRAID XT software. SoftRAID XT is the most powerful, intuitive software RAID utility on the market. As the article says the iMac Pro could easily have been a stopgap machine while they waited for the new MacPro, but having one I can say I am happy there will be a new one. It is not going away.So AppleInsider is saying that a component manufacturer is saying there will be a new iMac Pro in 2021, which is good news. We need to adapt, both as developers and as users. The SoftRAID application is used for setting up SoftRAID volumes and investigating problems.

27, 2020 The Many Parts of SoftRAID SoftRAID is made up of three key parts: the application, the monitor, and the driver. MacOS puts security before user ease of use. SoftRAID, Big Sur, and the New M1 Macs OWC Tim OWC News Tech Talk posted on Nov. There are various other security mechanisms, such as when you copy the app from another machine, that can cause it to be blocked.
SOFTRAID BIG SUR DRIVER
the problem is if the user just clicks "OK", rather than doing it, nothing happens and the driver can be blocked. It is always going to be a necessary step. The "Allow" OWC as a approved devloper is a Apple security process. Sur, CCC now automatically proceeds with a data-only backup when a SoftRAID. We are probably going to build a helper tool, (such as Carbon Copy Cloner has) to help users get this done. Bootable backups on Apple Silicon Macs running macOS Big Sur 11.3 and later. Noted that in macOS Big Sur and later, Apple's Photos app attempts to. this will probably change in the NEXT MacOS version.įull Disk Access must be manually enabled. Under SoftRAID, I noted that SoftRAID 6.1 now supports volumes formatted as APFS.
SOFTRAID BIG SUR WINDOWS 10
We do our best to prevent users from encountering them butit is difficult. Compatible: Works with macOS 11 Big Sur, M1 Macs and Windows 10 Advanced: Create RAID 0/1/4/5/1+0 (10) with Macs.

The next two questions are Security questions. Even worse, when I got it, and I configured my Raid, my performance was in the 300 MB range (Read and Write) for three very fast 2.5' SSDs. Compatible: Works with macOS 11 Big Sur, M1 Macs and Windows 10. So, I paid them, and at that point, I was out 220 plus tax. SoftRAID XT is the most powerful, intuitive software RAID utility on the market. Update: Support now claims to support Time Machine with SoftRAID 6.04 providing that the drives used are first formatted with APFS.
SOFTRAID BIG SUR UPGRADE
the next beta will have support for Apple Silicon. Now I had to upgrade to use it on Big Sur (which was my goal from the get-go). The bottom line to all of this is that the only way to reliably RAID drives in Big Sur is to use a hardware RAID solution. The current SoftRAID 6.0 b42 beta is intel only. I personally do, I would wait until the second release, let the worst bugs shake out. In DSM>Control Panel>File Services>Advanced I ensured that Bonjour discovery was enabled for both SMB & AFP. I kept AFP enabled even though it has been deprecated in Big Sur.
SOFTRAID BIG SUR UPDATE
OWC does not have an official position on whether users should update to Big Sur. In DSM>Control Panel>File Services>SMB/AFP/NFS select SMB Advanced Settings and set maximum SMB Protocol to SMB3 and minimum to SMB1.
