This started happening sometime ago but now got to the point where it's absolutely unworkable. I'm running Mac OS Server 5.3.1 on Mac Mini with Sierra 10.12.5. I have installed the latest driver, firmware and utility software for this Pegasus R6. Nothing helps. If I have Pegasus connected to the Mini and restart teh computer it stays in a working condition for about 10 minutes and then Server stops working I can't open any applications on the Mini at all. If I disconnect the Thunderbolt cable from the Pegasus then the computer runs without any issues. As I said it started happening about a month ago. I used to have to restart the computer a coupe of times a day. But now I have to keep restaring it constantly. I need to have this file server working! I have over 100 people depending on it! I reinstalled Mac OS on the Mini already, and no more updates are available for the Pegasus.

Alex,

I have a Pegasus(1) R6 12TB with a 2012 Mac mini running Yosemite 10.10.5 and it seems to be perfectly fine.

Is an OS downgrade an option?
