Not installing on 10.15.3 (with requested info!) #59

I am (attempting) to install SATSMARTDriver-0.8-Release and I (obviously have no idea what I'm doing) and get the following:

"This package is incompatible with this version of macOS."

I have read Killerovsky's response and comments on 1/28 and hopefully, this will provide enough info to help me get this installed.

Thank you Michael Sullivan

MacBook Pro Late 2014 (No T2, introduced 2017) Clean/new load of 10.15.3 No other macOS to try with USB 3

If I am able to install I'll be using several SSD enclosures using JMicron, Revision 3103

OS reports;

Product ID: 0xa37a Vendor ID: 0x125f (ADATA Technology Co., Ltd.) Version: 31.01 Serial Number: DB5641988387387568 Manufacturer: JMicron Location ID: 0x14600000

I'm most interested to determine wear (and any major errors/ uptime and power cycles. I have purchased a number of 1TB 860 EVO that have been "re-certified" from BestBuy for $99

Nothing you find here is going to work with Catalina or several other versions of macOS that require a signed driver. You can find download links for both signed versions of 0.8 and 0.10 along with detailed instructions courtesy of https://binaryfruit.com/drivedx/usb-drive-support.
