I was under the impression that Apple has moved away from allowing unsigned drivers to be loaded?

- Wowfunhappy 6y agoDepends on your definition of "allow". By default they're blocked, yes, but you can change that by booting into recovery mode, opening a Terminal window, and typing: csrutil disable && csrutil enable --without kext Now unsigned kexts will be allowed to load (while leaving the rest of System Integrity Protection intact). For most software this requirement would be a massive problem, but I'm not sure that applies to the type of person installing 3rd party graphics cards in Macs...
- Nursie 6y agoWhile I would agree with that in general, with the rise of the eGPU it seems a little less clear cut. Oh well, it is what it is...
- Wowfunhappy 6y agoThe nVidia Web Drivers never officially supported eGPUs anyway. In order to do it at all you had to use a hack which—surprise!—also required disabling System Integrity Protection! https://9to5mac.com/2018/05/05/nvidia-egpu-thunderbolt-macos-script-video/ https://9to5mac.com/2018/05/05/nvidia-egpu-thunderbolt-macos...
