No issues reported. And I just ran through some tests, everything is fine with a Thunderbay 4 (TB2) and the iMac Pro.

Yes you are safe to upgrade. We have only had reports on the Mac Pro 2019, not on other M series computers. I think fixing one issue led to others, etc and eventually they will get sorted out, but for now the Mac Pro with TB2's should not have 15.3 installed.

Your email had two sections:

  1. A "kernel panic issue affecting 2019 Mac Pros running macOS 15 with Thunderbolt 3 enclosures" and the mail said this was resolved in 15.2.
  2. A "new kernel panic issue in macOS 15.2 when using Thunderbolt 2 enclosures connected via an Apple Thunderbolt 2-to-3 adapter," did not specify this was only in Mac Pros, said it was still unsolved, and said not to upgrade to 15.2.

 

As the owner of a Mini and an M3 Pro MBP both running 15.1 and driving a Thunderbay 4 TB2 enclosure with a 2/3 adapter, am I safe to upgrade or not?

No other models affected. Should be fixed in 15.3
