@softraid-support Apologies on the snark in my post - I wasn't sure what had happened to my initial post, so I reposted it again. I guess it was in moderation.
In any case, thank-you for the quick reply and the solution to the issue. It works perfectly now without any issues on my Mac running Tahoe 26.2. Thanks very much!

We do not "delete" posts, unless they are off topic, rude, duplicate posts, etc.

Something in your system blocked the SoftRAID Monitor from loading at startup.
This will work around the issue:

Please don't delete this post as this something I need resolved in order to make the OWC 8 Drive enclosure useable.

I installed the recent SoftRAID (Version 8.6.1) for my 8 drive OWC enclosure, and the software freezes on launch, with the error:

"SoftRAID Error: An internal part of the SoftRAID Monitor has stopped functioning properly. Please quite SoftRAID and relaunch it."

However, doing so puts me in another error. No amount of relaunching resolves the error.

I'm on Tahoe 26.2

MacBook Pro M2

Thanks!
