                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[I have a RAID 0 volume (4 x 4 TB = 16 TB), and I want to validate it (just to be sure).

I right click on the volume on the rhs of the SoftRAID window, and choose Validate, and validation starts. But very shortly, the "current offset" stops incrementing, at a value somewhere between 3 and 4 billion, and the estimated time starts increasing towards infinity (and then is no longer displayed).

I can't tell if it is the counter itself that has stopped, or the entire validation. Validation of this volume should take about 18-24 hours, so I could just let it run and see if it finishes, but I haven't yet.

The SoftRAID log doesn't show any errors.

Thoughts?]]></content:encoded>
