Maybe thats why my DroboPro is off line and stuck in a loop. I have an early 2008 Mac Pro and tried Mavericks on one drive but it froze and even booting into Safe mode didn’t help, I thought it was PGP software even though the disk wasn’t incrypted.
Interestingly when I tried to reboot from another drive bay holding a partitioned WD Drive. It had also been damaged.

I was able to get the SnowLeopard Partition to Run
I then used DiskWarrior on the Broken MountainLion Clone
Re :installed MountainLion on top of it, Updated to latest Mountain Lion
Then superdupered back to my original wiped Velociraptor Drive
That worked. My Movies located on a seperate external WD drive happened to not be connected at install! (lucky me!) and seem fine and connect to iMovie and Final Cut Pro.
My iTunes files and photos located on a seperate bay drive also a WD drive BUT NOT PARTITIONED

Seem absolutely fine.
The Time machine located on the other firewire connected MyBook, but turned off for update also is a bit broken but only about 450G, the original Velociraptor disk files and changed files going back are missing, but that might be fixable if I could be bothered. All the rest seems accounted for.
The DroboPro is another matter, and was the “other backup” having large sparsedisk bundles used for copying the other disks both internal and external. Can’t get it to play currently, Drobo Dashboard can’t access it, the data will be gone I suspect.
Thank heavens I am so obsessed with backups, and still have disks I havn’t needed to plug in that have retrospect backups on them.
Most are Western digital, but then this update also broke my DroboPro backups.
Very sorry for anyone who looses data permanently
People with apparently damaged drives should seek help, especially for the guy with his
PhD thesis on it…YIKES !! I hope YOU have more than one copy of that!
Regards to all…
