[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1098116"] It sounds like you were using a backup tool that failed to find or mount the target drive and thus backed up to /Volumes. In the second screenshot from Disk Inventory, expanding the name beyond "Volume" will likely reveal a hidden folder. If that's the case, you can almost certainly delete that folder safely. [/QUOTE]
