    this is why I wait a couple weeks. what is the point in updating to 12.5 if 12.6 is just a few days away.

      It’s not really a big deal for me, updating and rebooting takes all of 4 min on my server, so prefer to update and ensure issues are mitigated.

      If you’re running something earlier than 6.12.5 and using ZFS, there is a potential for data loss due to a bug that can occur on any ZFS filesystem (not just within unRAID). Patching to at least 6.12.5 mitigates that bug and 6.12.6 solves it, so delaying a couple of weeks could put data at risk. Not advised.

      Cause OpenZFS just published a nice bug fix, so unraid gets a version bump.
