I wish I could go back to the last OS...there is nothing good about High Sierra......
I downgraded a 4-year old MacBook Air from 10.13 High Sierra to 10.12 Sierra this past weekend.

I just downloaded the Sierra installer from the Mac App Store, created a bootable USB flash drive, booted from that, wiped out the Air's SSD, then installed Sierra. Very simple, no fuss whatsoever.

Nothing prevents you from installing an older version of macOS/OS X that your computer is qualified to run.

So, still no APFS support for SSDs in RAID. APFS is the only reason I'd update to HS on my Mini, so I'll stick with Sierra for now. I can't see any other good reason to install it. I have it on my MacBook and quite frankly I don't see any need to update.

That's sarcasm, right? That's a stack of time and effort I really don't want to get bogged down in. I'll stick to Sierra, I think.
