Re: [Avid-L2] Re: MacPro Internal Raid Access yields error 5000?

Thank you John. You just solved an issue I've been dealing with for months
now and posted about here as well. I've been thinking it was a drive
permissions error all along and have never thought to look at folders.
Sequences from one certain Avid here just would not see my INT RAID and
sure enough the media from his Avid that was moved to my system had folders
with read only selected.
