Looked around but cannot find much on this. Does anyone have experience w/ or knowledge about the Highpoint RocketRAID 642L under High Sierra? The Highpoint site has drivers v4.13.2, but the readme only specifies up to 10.12.
Got a tip for us?

For those of you searching for this answer and landing here, to answer myself on this, YES, the RocketRAID 642L works under macOS 10.13 High Sierra. It appears to include a newer driver than the latest one available from Highpoint's site (the v4.13.2 for Sierra I mentioned above)...this one is 4.13.6 on the machine I upgraded. Anyway, hope this helps someone!
Had to upgrade recently from the R622 which was incompatible OOB and the driver won't install.
However, the R642L works fine on High Sierra with v4.13.2_16_11_17 HighPoint driver and RAID Management Web Tool from their site. Are you suggesting there is an OOB v4.13.6 in the OS or do you mind sharing a link?
Compatibility with Mojave will be the big question as to whether it's a safe upgrade or will result in downtime from unloaded kexts if the driver package installs.
