Has Sequoia finally resolved the PCIE M.2 NVME mounting issues so many faced?

It looks likes some people are reporting Sequoia has resolved the bug seen by so many in Sonoma, that caused NVME and RAID cards to intermittently mount on reboot.

The details are all here: PCIE M.2 drive not mounting after Sonoma … - Apple Community

And here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/mac-pro-2019-nvme-raid-drives-failing-to-mount.2366297/page-25

Having spent far too long "downgrading" from Sonoma to Ventura just to get my Mac Pro 2019 working with all attached drives, I'm extremely hesitant to "upgrade" to Sequoia until it's 100% certain the bug is gone!

Mac Pro, macOS 13.6

I think the issue being discussed here in an issue where softRAID can not recognize drives, and AppleRAid has some trouble.

Problems with plain Disk Utility are likely caused by something else.

Readers have reported that drives that rely on Promise Drivers may need those drivers, or slightly different version, installed manually, as the version included in MacOS is stale.

Be sure to check with the card vendor for direct guidance on what Drivers might be needed for Sequoia.
