I set BIM Server to store Projects and Libraries on the RAID at /Volumes/DataRAID/Teamwork/Projects and /Volumes/DataRAID/Teamwork/Libraries.
The problem is that after a reboot, the RAID gets mounted at /Volumes/DataRAID 1, and I have a folder at /Volumes/DataRAID that just has empty folders for my teamwork projects and libraries. This of course is causing errors for everything else stored on the RAID.
My guess is that the RAID is taking too long to mount at startup, BIM server is making a new folder in /Volumes, and then the RAID can't use that location.
Could this be correct, and if so, what can I do about it?
Shouldn't BIM Server just wait for those locations to appear rather than making empty default folders if it doesn't find them?

If I remember correctly.
The quick solution is to disable the automatic restart option for the Bimserver and do it manually once the system is up and running. I know this is not the best scenario and baring any new changes with BimCloud the option might be to use an App that launches the program once the Volume has mounted.
For example:

BTW I have not tried this my solution was to run BimS from the startup disk and keep my files on the secondary HD
