Default HDN chassis on M1
Avid does not list the M1 macs on the enclosures compatibility page

Is anyone running one of these on an M1 mac? If so please provide some details on your chassis and setup.

Seeing enough success stories from people using ilok, PTU and plugs under rosetta 2 that i am thinking of taking the plunge with a mac mini on big sur.

Would be a fun experiment.

Rosetta 2 is irrelevant here. You need to be using the recent HDX driver with both native Intel and Apple silicon support.

It won't work yet and not sure you'd need hdn with the M1. Its v. Powerful, it removes the need really.

Mainly i need the HDN to connect my aurora 16 over digilink. I suppose i could get the Thunderbolt expansion card for the aurora instead of using HDN in a chassis, though not sure how differently the interface acts in that mode.

On the system compatibility page if you click the new mac mini 9,1 it shows HDX and HDN PCIe as compatible, but if the chassis arent working yet i dont see how anyone could be using HDX on any apple silicon macs...

Chassis not working yet I suspect could be some info just not updated (September 2021, almost a pandemic decade ago). It does not say it won't work. And as you point out if folks have HDX running on any M1 system they are using an expansion chassis.

Indeed, might be worth waiting out to see though

Works just fine with an HDX card (at least the Avid-branded Sonnet chassis does.)
Tested on an M1 Max Macbook Pro.

That's really good to know but will likely wait it out myself for a good 3 years to ensure everything's solid.
