Hi,

I have a ThunderBolt2 Lacie Little Big Disk. This is basically 2 x 500gb m2 SSDs.

When it arrived it was set as a 1Tb RAID0 disk. I used disk utility to change it to 2x500gb separate disks.

All worked fine.

I am now wanting to change it back to a 1Tb RAID0 configuration. I've gone to disk utility and tried to use the raid assistant on my iMac (High Sierra 10.13.6).

Each time I try to convert it to RAID0 I get an error message stating, "RAID creation failed. Mediakit reports bad partition or no map found (unmounting proposed new member disk8s1)"

I've tried mounting both volumes / unmounting them - everything, but each time I get the same error message. If I format them as normal both disks appear and can be used with no problems.

Any ideas chaps?

Thanks in advance - Hussman
