Issues cleaning up old PoolPart.GUID directories

$

Hi,

 

2 issues i was hoping to get some advice on:

 

1) I recently removed and re-added a drive from my drive pool while juggling some file placement issues and it's left behind an old PoolPart.GUID directory that I can't seem to delete.   There are no files and all the "leaf" directories (directories that don't have anything in them) report back as "access is denied" whenever I try to access/delete/change permissions.

 

I'm running with admin privilages as well.   reboots haven't cleared up the broken folders either. CHKDSK is clean as well...  this is on a w2k2012 r2 OS.

 

2) I've also noticed i have another old PoolPart.GUID directory on another drive.   This time, it *does* contain files (~2.8GB's worth 1000's of files).  Last touched more than a year ago..    This was probably from another drive removal and then re-add.  The files are still readable and directories are accessible (unlike issue #1).  

 

Anyone know of a way to easily validate the files in this old PoolPart are safe to delete?   It's a lot of directories and a lot of files.  

 

thanks,
