Thanks for the quick response. I created new account after restarting as you suggested and the issue persists. I also tried to create new volume using different file systems, including MS-DOS and nothing is working - the same error message. I can create Apple RAID volume on the same machine and the attached thunderbolt enclosure using terminal and it works. I am after the safeguarding features of SoftRAID, hence the reason for trying to make this work. Do you have any other suggestions???]]></content:encoded>
