Big Sur

[PeterFV]

Is there any evidence that a TerraMaster D5 Thunderbolt 3 5-Bay can not run on a Mac running Big Sur?

[TMroy]

It is not tested, can't tell.

[PeterFV]

I've tried. It has provoked multiple rebuilds whereas Catalina provoked none. It cannot be relied on at present.

Why haven't you tested it?

[TMroy]

We will test it in near future.

Big Sur

Big Sur was available from the 9th of August and you still haven't tested it.

Perhaps you can understand why I have little faith in your test management.

I will be returning your woefully under-developed box.

For a direct attached storage, you just need to make sure your computer support the Thunderbolt 3 interface and follow the Thunderbolt 3 protocol, no matter PC or MAC. that’s closed related to computer hardware instead of OS. Compare to the OS, the model number is more critical issue you need to concern before you purchase your device. That’s why the OS update testing is not an hurry issue from our plan.

So you claim you don't need to test it because you're sure it works.

Fine by me: watch your sales collapse as Apple releases Big Sur. My machine is being returned to Amazon.

Your test manager needs to be fired. As a parting gift send him this:

Goodbye.

Come on, did I say we don’t need to test it?
Anyway, you can do anything by following the return policy, good luck!

And when does Apple release Big Sur?

Ever missed a train?

As the team got a long working list, but after an internal discussion, I am sucessful to convince the product team to give the Big Sur test better priority. But that's going to take some time, I will keep you update.
