[QUOTE="peterbj7, post: 1449668, member: 201846"] If it's formatted NTFS it may not be readable by your version of OS-X. I know that earlier versions couldn't read NTFS but I'm not sure when it changed. A friend's white MB running either 10.4 or 10.5 won't read NTFS. Try it in a Windows machine and if it works there that's probably the reason. If it won't work on Windows either it may have been damaged by being unplugged without being ejected, in which case good luck with it! I've just checked that Paragon NTFS doesn't work on 10.4 which suggests that 10.4 can't read NTFS (it does on 10.5 on). You'll have to reformat the drive to something your machine can read, or upgrade your version of OS-X. [/QUOTE]
