MP 7,1 Random Panic/Sleep Issues Persist

Yes, it worked beautifully from the first day. I moved both Sonnets to Pool A, which overloaded Pool A at 200%, but when I tested the read/write speeds of the drives, they were not really impacted. I think the only issue is if I copy files from one Sonnet to the other, which I typically don't do.
Interestingly, when I installed 10.15.5 today and switched back to Automatic Bandwidth, I discovered the same panic while sleeping as I said. But when I changed it back to having both on Pool A and restarted, the Mac also panicked when going to its first sleep. I was starting to think that 10.15.5 even broke the fix, but after restarting and trying again, it seems the fix continues to work.
Interesting. I installed the update yesterday and had one issue after installing, which went away promptly after another restart. Also had another update for both XDR displays; seems things have settled down and solid now (with better performance out of the W5700X too)
Do you have any room in slot 3 to put 1 of the two cards? I'm sure you've thought of that, but I wonder if that makes any difference at all vs. 4 and 5
On a side note, you're definitely giving the system a workout with 3x16 slots filled with those two Sonnet cards soaking up the entirety of the x16 slots bandwidth haha
nice
