I am moving from a 2019 MacPro with a Pegasus R4i, to a Mac Studio with a Pegasus R12.  I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to move the data directly from the R4i to the R12.

I haven't been able to mount the R12 to the old 2019 Mac Pro.  The device appears in System Information -> Thunderbolt/USB4 to either Thundrebolt Bus, but never appears in Disk Utility.

If I target the 2019 MacPro to the new Mac Studio, I can mount that internal Macintosh HD, but don't see the Pegasus R4i.

Currently, I'm planning on using a clone I maintain of the R4i to shuttle the data over.  Hoping there is a way to go directly though.

*The R12 mounts just fine to the Mac Studio.  Pool 1 finished synchronizing yesterday.  Raid 60, 1 spare.

Hi Todd,

The Pegasus R12 has a driver different from the R4i. Please install this R12 driver.

If the Pegasus R12 is connected and plugged in, the volume should mount after the driver is installed and the R12 boots. This will take several minutes.

Then the R4i and R12 icons should show on the desktop. There are 3 volumes in the R12 here.
