[QUOTE="dhartsough, post: 1763597, member: 394050"] I have a 2010 iMac running OS X 10.11.6 with two External hard drives daisy chained via firewire. The second disk in the chain (4 Tb G Drive) is fine after a reboot - meaning I can edit files on it, However, after a couple of days something changes and I can no longer edit files on this drive. The drive and file permissions still show everything as read / write enabled, but I cannot actually save changes. Has anyone else seen this sort of problem and is there a configuration setting somewhere that can keep this from happening. Thanks in advance for any help. [/QUOTE]
