![]() In November, following the suggestion of a helpful Apple engineer, we added this routine to the SoftRAID driver. Starting with the M1 Macs, if a driver doesn’t call this routine, the first attempt to read or write data will cause a kernel panic. This routine has been in macOS forever but has never been required before. With the introduction of the macOS 11 on the M1 Macs, macOS requires storage drivers to call a special routine just before sending any block of memory to the disks when reading and writing. This bug prevented the SoftRAID driver from loading on M1 Macs. We have been shipping for just under a week, and users are upgrading to this new version and telling us how much they appreciate it.īut what’s the status of SoftRAID and the M1 Macs? Over two months ago, I first wrote about the bug Apple introduced into macOS with the release of macOS 11.2. This means you no longer have to use a beta version of SoftRAID if you have upgraded to macOS 11 (Big Sur). As many of you know, we released SoftRAID version 6 last week.
