[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1951402, member: 175845"] Wow, I haven't heard the name of the wonderful DiskWarrior application mentioned for a long time and it seems that it pretty well got killed off with apples introduction of their APFS formatting structure. But it seems it can still be used for rebuilding volumes in other formats including external disks from what their support site says. But it's also a bit expensive for the average user to invest in and I guess I'll never know if they ever improved their upgrade routine which was a real PITA with their older upgrade versions. 😊 Anyway, its usefulness has certainly been reduced compared to what it used to be. Too bad. EDIT: If the OP wants to check or possibly repair the questionable Drive and it's problems they may want to have a look and give TechToolPro or maybe even Cocktail applications a try. I have never tried using cocktail but Tech Tool Pro has been a handy tool to have where other software has given up working: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.micromat.com/mac-hard-drive-repair/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=87570103&gbraid=0AAAAADm_0yEq1vveA9V2isi08usjBTtDd&gclid=CjwKCAjw87XBBhBIEiwAxP3_A4S8MgaIBnzif1uWw2lQIYiDFwwNB04M5bzt2x34lVkoMN31QWbECBoCoNAQAvD_BwE[/URL] - Patrick ======= [/QUOTE]
