Tariq was able to partition my disk, and I was able to encrypt it.

But, for some unexplicable reason, the name of one of the drives I encrypted is now mounted as Name1 instead of just Name, as I specified.

AND, two of the three drives routinely cannot be ejected.

This had been a problem long enough to tick off my man Luis back in April 2014: The Disk Wasn’t Ejected Because We’re Stupid

I tried doing lsof +D /Volumes/Name for both affected drives, and in both cases got errors about files that were unreadable (due to file permissions).

Well if they’re unreadable, what the hell is reading them and why can’t you let me know what’s reading them more precisely than “one or more programs may be using it” ???
