Our office is running on backup power due to Hurricane Nicholas. All services should be up albeit with a slight delay as some employees working from home are without power.

bit shout out to @diskwarrior : saved my 36TB external RAID 5 enclosure today running #softRAID when 1 disk failed and the system went read-only. It rebuilt the directory flawlessly (MacOS Catalina). I changed the faulty disk and the RAID 5 system is now rebuilding automatically.

@diskwarrior to the rescue (again)
god bless those beautiful people who work on that wonderful software
it's not just the crucial service their software provides
it's the peace of mind knowing that it's going to do its thing, no matter what
DiskWarrior 5.2 is NOT compatible with macOS 11 Big Sur.
DiskWarrior 5.3 will be released for compatibility; however, it will not have the ability to rebuild APFS formatted Volumes.
We will update our website to reflect this information soon.

If you haven't heard of @diskwarrior, you're missing out. I use it about once a week to optimize my hard drives and it makes a huge difference.

@diskwarrior Y’all saved TWO albums. Seriously, best purchase I’ve ever made. One of the scariest things in the world is a disk error in #ProTools but you brought two different hard drives back from the dead. I might send y’all a Christmas card.

Totally unsponsored tweet, but had to share: my 12TB work drive (which is cloud backed-up) refused to mount. Neither Mac DiskUtility nor the WD tools it came with could help (and both suggested a reformat). @diskwarrior saved the day...in *minutes*. Fully repaired. Thank you!

Glad to hear we could help!
Remember to run a rebuild once a month to help keep issues from occurring in the future.

Phones can leak personal data
Like location & political views,
So why not look through your apps
And delete those you rarely use.
Then go to Settings > Privacy
To see data shared with apps.
Block stuff that should be private
With just a couple of taps.
Now that macOS 10.15 Catalina has been released; we have updated DiskWarrior Recovery Maker to 1.4. DiskWarrior 5.2 is compatible with Catalina when rebuilding external HFS+ Volumes.

Dear DISKWARRIOR - it’s years since we last talked. And then yesterday I was wondering how DO I sort out this problem. Up you popped in my mind. You told me I needed to upgrade. I did. You did the analysis. You fixed it.
Thankyou for saving that 3 TB of data.

Had some bad news from RAID drive set #2 yesterday. Fortunately @diskwarrior fixed what DiskUtility couldn't. Done and dusted in short order.

cont… (4) Disk Drill, but none of them fixed the issue by rebuilding HFS+. Then I finally gave #DiskWarrior a try and you can’t believe, it saved my money, life, and data of last few years. Yes, all fixed. Kudos to the developers of this wonderful #Mac app. #DataRecovery
