@tim-rohrer If you can find a SoftRAID Monitor crash, we can look at it, and see if we can identify the cause, so we can fix it. We do not want to ...
@dabee Its not sketchy, that is essentially 4 rebuilds. Then a resize.
If it is intel, it will mount, yes and it can rebuild. But the driver in MacOS cannot notify. They could install the SoftRAID driver on M1 for a 14 ...
