I too get this error message (error code -50) when trying to copy files to my external hard drive (RAID Mirror Drive). It seems that I have access rights issues since I upgraded to Snow Leopard. When I open files on the external drive, they open as read only. I then can't save any files to the drive.

Thanks in advance for any sage advice!
