About a week ago I installed security update on my mini and forgot to eject my Drobo DAS before restarting. The DAS will no longer mount, Disk Utilities can see it but not repair it and the Drobo Dashboard can see it (my data is still there). Drobo tech support recommended getting Disk Warrior to make the repairs.
My Disk Warrior disk came in today but I'm having some issues with it.
I'm booting from disk with the Apple Superdrive plugged in but the Mini just won't respond. Whether holding down the C key or Option key and selecting the DW disk the disk spins up for a few moments with the gray Apple screen then a circle slash pops up. I've tried this many times, even leaving it for a half hour to see it responds but nothing.
I have a MBP that I could use to Target Disk to the Mini but is that going to help at all with the Drobo mounting issue?
Nothing on the Drobo is critical. It's just my DVD and music collection that I've ripped over the last couple months. I'd rather try to fix it before giving up, reformatting and re-ripping all the media.
