Could you build this?
No Controlling a G-RAID with Thunderbolt requires reverse-engineering the ASMedia ASM1092R's proprietary management protocol and working with the physical hardware, which vibe coding cannot do alone.
What it would actually take: A real version needs low-level macOS work (IOKit, USB/Thunderbolt/SCSI passthrough) plus iterative protocol reverse engineering using packet captures and hardware experiments. That requires the physical G-RAID device, electrical and protocol-level expertise, and careful testing to avoid data loss during RAID mode changes or drive replacement.
