Security Properties
Hi,
I have a Raid Stripped drive system. It was setup years ago under XP Pro Sp3. It is part of a server class Windows system with removable boot drives.
I have recently built a Windows 7 drive and I am migrating all my apps to that drive.
I have had some random permission errors trying to access the drive with Windows Explorer on the Win 7 boot drive. However, the documents I have on that drive are available from the applications which created them. That has never been an issue. The problem seems to be with Windows Explorer trying to access the entire Raid system which causes a Security Permission errror.
I am now on the XP SP3 drive and I would like to reset the permission properties by adding "Everyone" . There is presently not an issue with the Raid system using the Xp boot drive. But, just in case, I would like your support on this issue.
be well be happy,
Howie

Windows explorer cannot access the drive but in some cases MS Word is able to load files.
My XP drive is able to access the Raid drive and so is Xp's Explorer. I have lost permissions I once had. I can enable "everyone" account permission on the Raid drive from the XP drive.
Will this fix the problem or make it worse?
