How to install Akitio 3 and M6000 GPU to Mac Book air with High Sierra 10.13.3


Please see my previous post on installing this on a previous version of High Sierra for more details. The main gist of it is to 

1. Enable System Integrity Protection (SIP) 
2. Download and install
cuda_9.1.128_mac.dmg
WebDriver-378.10.10.10.25.156.pkg
Cudadriver_387.128_macos.dmg

3. Disabled SIP by restarting while pressing command+ R
I used the terminal and type csrutil disable

4. Install the nvidia-egpu-v6.zip tool that correspond to my driver and my high Sierra version 10.13.3. After installation the tool will ask you to restart your computer.

5. Do a hot plug of the egpu onto the laptop. The computer should recognize it by the driver.

6. Finally, restart once more for the  gpu to be recognized by the CUDA driver
