Unraid 6.12.8 Now Available

This release has two very important fixes. First, we updated Docker to incorporate fixes for them recent security advisory.

Second, we fixed a corner case bug which can lead to data loss if a newly added array drive has a non-standard partition layout. If you add one of these drives, the second time you start the array, the drive will show as unformatted. If this happens, please contact support, and we can help you with data recovery. Even if you have not encountered this issue, we recommend upgrading so that you will not be affected when adding drives in the future.

This release also includes some nice fixes in networking, Docker containers, Time Machine support, and VMs, as well as a fix for a slowdown some systems were having on the Dashboard. We have also improved the SMART attribute handling for NVME and SSD drives and improved system logging for better support outcomes.
