    I have 3 G-Raid external hard drives connected to my Mac (Mojave 10.14.6). MC only recognizes 2 of the drives even though there are MXF files on all 3 drives. Whenever I try to import footage, the problem drive is always greyed out no matter the project. BTW, all 3 options are deselected in the Drive Filtering & Indexing tab. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

    Just in case anyone is concerned, I finally arrived at the solution to my “greyed out drive” issue. I didn’t notice that the “read/write” option was not selected in the Permissions section on that particular drive. This was not an MC issue but rather an Apple one. All is well.
