@stevek A clue:validation of a 12TB volume should be 4-6 hours on fast disks, not 140. On older disks, maybe 8 hours.Maybe do try swappingi the enc...
@stevek Make sure Volume Optimization is set to workstation or server.
@stevek This proves the disks are OK. I assume when you "validate" you see 500MB/s + ? That shows the volume structure is OK. So it comes dow...

@bowcaps Are you referring to keeping the disks awake, where we recommend Caffeine, Amphetamine, etc for keeping them spinning? Both are "free" app...
@joemikeb I tend to agree. We have not yet, as the argument is "Apple is going to fix this". We need to also update the disk eject dialog box. Th...
