    G-RAID with SSDs — should it be faster than this?

    Hi all, I've had an 8TB G-RAID Thunderbolt 3 drive for a couple years and I got tired of the noise and slow speeds with my Mac -- around 380 MB/s -- so I just swapped out the HDDs with two WD Blue 2.5" SSDs. I used the RAID configurator to format the array as RAID 0 and then initialized them...

    OWC Express M42 - Speed seems slow on TB3

    CORRECTION: OWC Express 4M2! Hi, speed tests via Aja attached. Shouldn't the Thunderbolt 3 (MBP 14,3) speeds be faster? We were hoping to get closer to 2500 MBps. - macOS Mojave 10.14.2 - OWC Express 4M2 - 4x Samsung 970 EVO 256GB SSD - Dedicated bus - SoftRAID configured RAID 0 - Mac Pro 6,1...

    2-NVMe blades, 2-PCIe to NVMe, Raid 0 & Mojave install. What can go wrong?

    So yesterday I began looking into upgrading my MacPro 5,1 storage and looking a the new 140.0.0.0.0 bootrom firmware that supports native NVMe boot, i took the plunge and bought two 500GB Samsung 970 Evo NVMe M.2 blades and two Vantech M.2 NVMe PCIe x4 Adapters. Why 2 of each? Well, I wanted to...

    I'm on the verge of buying this hard drive: https://www.wdc.com/en-gb/products/internal-storage/wd-red.html#WD80EFZX to use to clone my boot drive to as a backup. (I'm aware that they can be had for far less money via places other than from WD themselves). As it's a much more modern drive...
