RAX80: 1.0.1.70 firmware causing Time Machine backup failure
Since upgrading my RAX80 to 1.0.1.70 firmware, my time machine backups are repeatedly failing. I tried changing the attached USB 3 drive in case that was at fault but the backups either don't complet...
Additionally, when I attach the drives to my mac locally (they are formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled) / GUID Partition Table as specified in the User Guide), running Disk Utility -> First Aid on the partition fails, and mounts the drive read-only (I forgot to note the error, sorry, but it was the same on the old and new drives).
I had similar issue and could not fix using Disk Utility.... it would give error trying to do repair and was marke read only as you mentioned. I was only able to fix it by formatting drive by plugging it into my Android device. I lost all of data on it but was not using it for backup. It is plugged back in now and shows up as writeable instead of read only but I have not tried using it again to actually store any data.
