We have released a public beta for SoftRAID, 8.6, that is compatible with MacOS 26.
the link is here: https://www.softraid.com/sr_beta
This version supports all MacOS versions from MacOS 12.x though MacOS 26, and includes bug fixes for Tahoe.
Currently the driver version for SoftRAID that loads with Tahoe is 8.6
If you encounter any issues, and wish to report them:
1. Save a SoftRAID tech support file!!! attach it to your post.
2. Brief description of the issue, and how we can reproduce it.
3. Its unlikely we will need any additional information, or screen shots, just wait until you are asked for additional information.
Thanks!
Thank you, so much. Works so far good.
Downloaded and installed fine. Beta only good for 53 more days (in my case from today) and it didn't carry my license/serial number over so I hope that will not be an issue after beta(s).
I realize that but will I need to reactivate after beta cycle and next version is released? Not willing to go thru the reactivation hassles I have read about in the forums. Do I need to just revert back to non working so I won't have to worry about reactivation at all? Did the beta install just wipe out that possiblilty and no matter what I do I will need to reactivate? If so, people need to be warned ahead of time.
The beta does not wipe your license activation, nothing is touched.
Remember in the forums, you are only reading problems, not successes. Its a small portion of users who get activation issues.
Excellent news. Thank You. Reinstalling beta.
Installed on MacOS 26 Tahoe Beta 2. OK so far! 😀

Any updates? the current beta is showing 20d remaining ... will there be an extension, or an updated beta?
If you are running the 8.6 beta, yes there will be updates.
If you are running the original beta, go to the same link and get the current beta.
Thanks -- I am currently running SoftRAID v 8.6 b4 Driver v8.6 with 13 Days remaining running on MacOS 26 b6
It is getting very close now
Don't worry, a new beta will be released soon.
Will the new beta be found via "check for updates" in the app, or posted here on the forum?
