I strongly suggest that with any OS, try it first. If it works, 
then you're done. If not then perhaps install a driver or take 
some other action.

After a MacOS upgrade, I lost contact between my computer and 
K3. The cause turned out to be a driver I had installed. The new 
system had a FTDI driver, but it was overridden by my obsolete 
driver. Deleting the old driver fixed things.
