Have they fixed and re-added RAID support and finished Disk Utility with all features yet in this beta? Until they do I can't even update to El Capitan.
I had no idea how Apple butchered Disk Utilty until looking into it and my goodness this is like some kinda joke! How can they release this to production with no software RAID support! This is simply outrageous! Silently dropping software RAID support! Updating for ease of use is one thing but removing features too at the same time is criminal. I realize this is still in the command line and there are hacks to restore the old Disk Utilty from Time Machine Backup but that's totally an unacceptable work around. If this is supposed to return (and it sure as heck should) and Disk Utilty wasn't finished why are they pushing a half completed update with those features removed on such a crucial piece of system software!
Here are a bunch of features removed and further on the lack of Software RAID support and what your software defined disks will look like:
