Regarding sleep, ejection issues with M1 hardware running Ventura
My response a few days ago to another thread:
"Welp... I landed here after a trip to the store (Gone 20 minutes) and found this reported from my OWC 8TB raid. I'm a TV/Film composer and I spent a LOT of time loading this thing.
As Otto cried in "A Fish Called Wanda": "DISSAPOINTED!!!"
In one response I'd read "this could lead to data loss"... Turns out.. It nuked one of the 4TB SSD drives in my OWC Mercury enclosure... Luckily for me I was still under warranty and was anointed with an RMA#. The whole shebang is FedEx-ing its way back to them to see WTF and if they can save my data. (It was RAID 0 so, I'm not holding my breath.
According to other threads this has been a known issue for awhile. I'll re-iterate Otto's opinion: "DISSAPOINTED".
