Mac Pro 5,1 Thunderbolt Status Update Share It’s been a while since our last update however a lot has been going on with the development of the custom firmware however it’s not all good news but progress is being made. I have a Mac Pro 5,1 2010 (Build 2011) and is running High Sierra now. I used Mojave before via dosdude1 before but I want something running natively. Does anyone knows if there's a way to run it on the HD 5770 via firmware update? Or should I give up and get a RX580?

So, as many Mac Pro users have learned, Mojave requires the boot drive file system to be formatted as APFS and the installer converts it to such (want it or not). If you try to force any variation of HFS+ for the Mojave boot drive, no updates will ever be possible on this drive through the Software Update mechanisms.
