[QUOTE="aeiou, post: 308645, member: 12382"] I'm his Brother, and I'm just as confused with this as he is. He is using the same cable for all of this and has 2 fat partitions, now. It still takes a very long time for disk utility to say anything, but it will sometimes "see" the drive, but he can't really do anything with it. He can't reformat it totally yet because he has information on it that he needs, but I think that is where he needs to start- with just one basic fat partition across the whole drive. I don't know why OSX would have a problem with this, but it is acting quite odd. [/QUOTE]
