[QUOTE="krs, post: 1830822, member: 67742"] I'm now finding out that there is something wrong with the 8 TB external. I ran Disk Utility earlier, both on the external and then on each volume separately. All came back fine - no issues. A few minutes ago when I went back into Disk Utility to see if that could answer ferrarr's last question, disk utility launched but would not bring up any drives. I had to force quit, try it again and again - no dice. I then tried to eject all the volumes on the 8 TB, that started (icon changed) but never completed. So I finally shut down the whole Mac. Rebooted and the boot would not complete - after waiting for a couple of minutes, I decided to pull the USB 3.0 cable of the 8 TB external, and the boot finished immediately. Plugged the 8 TB USB cable back in, only 2 of the 8 TB volumes showed, then after a while the third one and even later the fourth one. So...the 8 TB drive has some sort of problem. [/QUOTE]
