This isn't as much of an issue with StableBit DrivePool as it is with the drive itself.

 

This is specifically an NTFS permissions issue, and would happen REGARDLESS of the software. 

 

that said, download this:

http://dl.covecube.com/WssTroubleshoot/Release/download/Wss.Troubleshoot_1.0.0.165.exe

 

And run the "Reset NTFS Permissions on the pool" option. This will reset the permissions to a "clean" state, so you can access everything. After that, you can then use the dashboard to change the permissions (you may want to run the "restore drivepool shares" option as well).

At least a few GBs on each disk. The more the better. 

 

Though, it's odd that you'd get the error at all. 

And you can re-apply it manually (right click on "ServerFolders", select "Properties", and open the "security" tab, click on the "Advanced" tab, and check "replace child ... entries..." and hit "Apply")
