ARC-8050T3-24R expander firmware supports the ability to spin up the disk drives sequentially or in groups, allowing the drives to come ready at the optimum time. But ARC-8050T3-24R cannot meet the short start up time on the Mac studio m1 max when expander firmware selects the sequentially spins up the disk drives option. This issue can fix by setting the option to spin up the drives in groups from the “Spin Command” on the expander firmware.
