[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1538766, member: 46727"] It sounds like the Seagate drive may be corrupt which is why the options are grayed out in Disk Utility. If you have critical data on the drive that you need, you might try [URL="http://www.alsoft.com/diskwarrior/"]Disk Warrior 4[/URL] to see if it can revive it. It's an expensive solution though, $99. I'm not sure if they offer a trial version. However, if you can afford to lose what's on the Seagate, I would write the drive off and replace it. And make backups of the Calvary drive just in case it decides to go off line again. [/QUOTE]
