| What is the default drive timeout in Fusion RAID systems? Should I change it? | Mar-24-10 |
| The default drive timeout Fusion RAID systems is 30 seconds. The default is generally the best, but may be insufficient for some Seagate drives, which in rare instances may not respond within a 30 second timeout and consequently appear as degraded. If you are using Seagate drives, Sonnet recommends setting the timeout to 60 seconds, with the CLI command, "set raidcommandtimeout 60000". |

| Does the ATTO R380 Support OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)? | Oct-21-13 |
| Official ATTO support ends with OS X 10.8.5.
With OS X 10.9+, you will no longer be able to boot from a drive or array connected to an ATTO R380, and you will no longer be able to create new RAID groups. You can install current drivers for this card under Mavericks, but there will be no support from ATTO. Furthermore, Mavericks OS will complain at every boot about using unsigned drivers.
To transition to Mavericks, customers with an early Fusion DX800RAID storage unit equipped with an R380 RAID controller can purchase from Sonnet an R680 RAID controller with an included cooling upgrade kit.
All Fusion DX1600RAID units were equipped with an R680 RAID controller, which has complete Mavericks support.
The Fusion D800RAID and R800RAID storage units are not compatible with the ATTO R680 card. To transition to Mavericks, customers with a Fusion D800RAID or R800RAID must upgrade to a DX800 storage unit which includes an R680 controller. The drives can be moved with the RAID array intact. If you would like to make this upgrade, contact Sonnet sales to inquire about purchasing a DX800 without drives. |
