| Storage connected to a USB 3 PCIe card (or Tango combo card) gives an macOS error message upon wake from sleep. | May-12-20 |
| To minimize power usage during sleep, power is removed from PCIe cards. Because of this power-saving specification, a USB 3 PCIe card is unable to maintain USB port power during sleep. In macOS, this result in a storage device disconnect upon wake from sleep. The storage device will automatically remount, but the system reports a disconnect message. Because macOS flushes all caches before sleeping, this disconnect should never result in any loss of data. |

| What versions of macOS support Allegro USB 3 cards? | Apr-02-22 |
| All Sonnet Allegro (and Fusion Dual 2.5" SSD RAID) PCIe Cards use a macOS pre-installed driver.
These cards are compatible with macOS 10.10 in the MacPro 3,1; 4,1 & 5,1 and in Thunderbolt 2 Expansion chassis.
These cards are not compatible with macOS 10.11, due to a bug in the Apple driver.
These cards are compatible with macOS 10.12 (2)-10.14 in the MacPro 5,1 and in Thunderbolt 2 & 3 Expansion chassis.
These cards are compatible with macOS 10.15-macOS 12 in the 2019 Mac Pro and in Thunderbolt 2 & 3 Expansion chassis.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes:
- These cards are not compatible with Thunderbolt 1 expansion chassis.
- macOS 10.12 erroneously reports a 5Gbps connection when connected at 10Gbps.
- The maximum Apple-supported OS for the Mac Pro 3,1 and 4,1 is OS X 10.11. Dosdude1 offers patchers to allow installation of newer versions of macOS. The Apple USB 3 driver in these patched newer versions will support the Allegro cards.
- Performance of the Allegro cards may be limited by the Mac Pro 5,1 PCIe 2.0 bandwidth.
