@ lmlang What you are saying is correct but shouldn't apply in this case. The Mac in this case is having trouble reading a drive that is directly connected to the computer. The afp and smb distinctions only apply if someone is trying to connect to a drive share over a network.
smb is the file sharing protocol commonly used when connecting to Windows based file shares.
