Drive Stalls

Dave,

What you are describing sounds like some kind of failure of the OS to read the drive.  Some information might help us narrow this down a little bit.

1.  What format is this drive?  If you right click the drive name in FINDER, you can do Get Info and it will tell you the format.
2.  Do you have a backup of this data somewhere?
3.  Do you have a spare drive you could try copying this one to?

I ask these weird questions because it seems possible that your drive is failing.

As I understand your post, the Mac OS is actually unmounting the drive.  You said it is "no longer available for browsing".  If the computer is unmounting the drive something is probably quite wrong with it.

Brian.

Hi Brian
Thanks for your reply. The issue of not recognising the drive has gone away. That was resolved when I disable auto add for the library.
I am confident the drive works ok,
The only issue now is that JRiver stalls after 20 - 30 seconds. Stopping play, so I can't actually play a song or an album

Take care. MD
