Hello! I purchased the suite of software about 6mo ago and everything has been great! This last week however, I went to run my regular snapraid backup, and it couldn't find the expected path for one of the PoolPart folders that had always been present on that particular drive. The drive letter didn't change or anything. As you can see from the attached pic (the left side of the window shows current folder name, and the right shows what it's always been previously), I've got 14 drives in the pool, and all of them have the same PoolPart names they've always had, but if you look at Drive K:, it's a completely new naming convention now. Any ideas what may have happened? Is this normal? I did actually replace this drive along with the one next to it (L:), however I didn't notice this behavior in with the 2nd drive. Unfortunately I hadn't run a backup for several weeks so I couldn't for sure blame it on the drive replacement and it was odd that it was only one of the two drives... DrivePool appears to be content and operating so should I just point SnapRaid at the new path and carry on? Thanks for any insight on this one!
