Folder disappears in raid

I have a raid that connects normally, but when it shows me all the folders, one has disappeared, it is not there!

Opening terminal and doing an ls of the disk, it appears but with invalid argument


didacrouresuarez@Air-de-Didac Raid Video % ls -la

ls: .fseventsd: Invalid argument

ls: Projects 2024: Invalid argument

total 14848


The rest of the folders appear as usual

Is this disk formatted as APFS or MacOS Extended (HFS+)? If instead FAT16, FAT32, exFAT, NTFS, or other then that could lead to issues with invisible files (.foo) or file attributes, especially when accessed through various client computers.

Are the creation/​modification dates for these two entries ‘valid’/​as expected? If not, try the touch command.


Try repairing with the RAID utility that configured this disk. (For Mac file systems, this might be Disk Utility.)

Welcome!


You found the forum section for askig how to use the Apple forum software. It gets few views, and is not the best place to ask technical questions. If you share with us what Apple device is involved and the operating system version it is running, we can ask the moderators to move you to a more active and appropriate forum for your issue.


Thanks.
