Ok here's the story.  Run the SuperStor utilities program SSUTIL
to check the disk and verify the file system.  In other words, read the 
manual.

Superstor ran into a bad spot on the disk when it was compressing the
file system.  It refused to move your files over it.

If you hadn't deleted the files -- the SuperStor utility ssutil would
enable you to fix the bad spots and recover the data with no problems.
Right now you've got a file system inconsistancy that's making the
Superstor driver mark it as a read only file system.

Ssutil will correct the inconsistancy internally and tell you to run 
fsck -- errr...  ooops I mean chkdisk to fix it for MS-DOS.

Hell - I've got flaky Perstor PS180 controllers RLLing MFM drives and
I've never had a problem that ssutil couldn't fix.
