Prior to installing this update I’ve been using AFP to mount my Drobo. I was doing this because color tags for files/directories were not supported when mounting using SMB and I make extensive use of those tags. I had submitted a ticket to address the issue and was provided an advance copy of the new firmware. The color tag problem has been fixed in 4.3.0 and I’m now using SMB. I did notice that mounting a share via AFP no longer seems possible after the upgrade. It’s not a problem for me but it’s not mentioned in the release notes and it might catch some users by surprise. I’ve got a request in to the support team to see if this is by design.
