SoftRAID Lite 5.6.3
Two LaCie 3 TB Thunderbolt drives certified without errors
Mac Mini 2.6 GHz Intel Core i5
MacOS X 10.13.2
8 GB memory

Tried to rebuild the mirrored drives with DiskWarrior 5.0
DiskWarrior failed and broke the RAID 1 connection between the two LaCie drives

Waiting now for "validating" to complete.

Dows anyone have a suggestion for me?

Disk Warrior cannot "break" A SoftRAID RAID volume. Disk Warrior talks to the SoftRAID published volume, not to the disks.

More likely, while Disk Warrior was reading the volume, the primary disk hung, fell off the bus, or was disconnected temporarily. What happened was the volume "failed over".

In either case, use Disk Warrior to repair your volume. Then delete the other mounted volume and "Add Secondary disk" to create your mirror volume again.

I guess I am mistaken about the broken link between the to drives. Sorry.

I still get the following:

DiskWarrior has successfully built a new directory for the disk named "Jukebox." The new directory cannot replace the original directory due to an OS X services failure.

Try rebuilding again. If this problem persists, please restart from a Recovery disk and then try rebuilding again.

All file and folder data was easily located.

• Errors, if any, in the directory structure such as tree depth, header node, map nodes, node size, node counts, node links, indexes and more have been repaired.

This is an old Disk Warrior 4 problem, that was mostly fixed in 5.0.

Try starting up from a different (clean install) volume.

What the error message is essentially is saying is that the tool it uses to write out the new directory is failing, possibly because it cannot get permissions to overwrite the old directory.

If a new clean install startup volume does not work, you may need to ask Alsoft about this.
