Ah okay, this is what we have now and it seems this setup doesn’t work very well.

Reason why we like to setup a SAN so the drive is connected directly to Workstations.

Thanks

Neil again thank you for your reply!

But my concern is how would something like this be setup? My understating to create attached storage (Mac Pro to Mac mini) is to implement a SAN, correct?

Hi Neil!

Thank you for your quick reply.
Yes as mentioned the Raid is already connected to the Mac mini over fibre and is being used at this moment as standard drive that is being shared over SMB. The Mac mini itself is a Mac mini 2018 mounted in a xMac Server with the DuoMode Echo III Module from Sonnet. From my knowledge the Mac mini does have…
