This has happened several times lately while editing and there seems no reason why. No power blip as this would affect an electric clock with no battery backup which is super sensitive to power outages - it is still functioning normally. Nothing done out of the ordinary while editing.

So maybe just one of the crosses we have to bear with computer based items?

After a couple of reboots of TwinStore & C10 it all eventually returns. I sense it might be TwinStore 3 that I'm working on as it is the only one rebooted - the other two seem happy enough and come back on line. Maybe it is warning that I should do another incremental backup of this TwinStore.

Does anyone have any ideas about the cause? Is it a warning that one of the HDDs in the TwinStore could be developing a fault? Or ....? Note the HDDs in T3 are relatively new Seagate 2 TB units and have not been on 24/7 like T1 & T2 (but they are not the same as the Seagate 2 TB enterprise drives in T1 & T2). I guess that being relatively new is no guarantee a drive will not fail.
