We may have to change to a different method of asking OS X the free space in SoftRAID 6. Heard thank you for the update.]]> SoftRAID Volumes J.Nerdy https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4545 https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4538 Sun, 26 Apr 2020 08:15:42 +0000 SoftRAID Volumes SoftRAID Support https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4538 https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4533 Sat, 25 Apr 2020 03:25:37 +0000 I have to investigate. I do not know whether this is a bug in SoftRAID, or a problem with the directory / file system on your volume. SoftRAID is doing a simple get info" kind of query to the volume to determine the free space. Here is a guess: When you have a volume that is full, note how sometimes just using "get info"., it can take a couple minutes to return the volume's space available, number of files, etc.? The SoftRAID app is sending out a bunch of queries to disks and volumes, and if it does not get this data in an allowed time, it just displays a -, and then does not update the volume tile after the OS finally responds to the volume query. Gotcha... it "times-out" rather than beach-balling a process. Let me know. I would not be surprised if it was an issue with the volume directory. (Since I can get disk info from finder, and read|write is fine - it is far from a "must-know" and more a "curiosity") Thanks for the rapid responses!]]> SoftRAID Volumes J.Nerdy https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4533 https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4516 Thu, 23 Apr 2020 18:02:10 +0000 SoftRAID Volumes SoftRAID Support https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4516 https://forums.softraid.com/softraid-volumes/volume-not-showing-space-used/#post-4514 Thu, 23 Apr 2020 03:27:47 +0000 Is this being used as a Time Machine volume? Correct. It always has.

It comes directly from the Finder, I have never seen this not work on a mounted SoftRAID volume. If it is not, send a screen capture of the expanded volume tile.
