Im moving from Mac to Windows.  I currently own a R2-4.  Have 3 drives on on board, a system drive for applications, a small project drive and a cache drive and am going to use the Promise as my heavy video editing drive.  Will MacDrive or Paragon HFS work or do I need to swap out the drives or reformat (after backing up data of course). Do I need to install a driver for Windows 10 newest release.  Im assuming a Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter from Apple will connect.

Thanks

Im ready to set up. Two questions.  Is the array set up in the Pegasus Box Bios or on the disks,  or in the OS.  In otherwords could I just swap out the mac disks for new windows disks before booting up?  Then, where can I find the instructions for how to set up the array.?

Hi Robert,

Yes, you have to install the driver for the Windows 10. Apple Thudnerbolt 3 to 2 adapter will also work with Windows.

The best way is to backup the data when connected to MAC and then delete the array . Then you  can connect the Peagsus  to the Windows, and create new array and move the data into it.

Thanks !
