| 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.

| In a Mac Pro, the SSDs are seen as external drives, how do I prevent accidental ejects? | Feb-14-23 |
| There is no provision in macOS to make SSDs on a PCIe card to appear as internal and non-ejectable. If you want to prevent accidental ejection, open a file on the volume with Text Edit, which will prevent macOS from ejecting the volume, because a file will be in use by Text Edit. |

| Does the Fusion Dual 2.5" SSD support 15mm 2.5" SATA/SAS hard drives? | Mar-30-20 |
| Yes. Note that 15mm drives are taller than allowed by the PCIe card specification. If the adjacent PCIe slot is empty, then 15mm drives will fit. |
