[QUOTE="EndlessMac, post: 1145723, member: 140470"] Well you said you took the drive from a desktop so it might have already been formatted and might have worked in Windows without you doing a proper reformat to erase the drive. Anyway that's probably not your problem. Have you tried NTFS mounter yet? Also is your external HD enclosure case self powered or USB powered? You should also copy your files back to your Windows computer so that you have at least two copies of your files. This way if something happens to your external you won't lose your files. Lastly when you plugged it into your Mac did it show up in Disk Utility? If you have never used Disk Utility you can find it in your Applications folder. [/QUOTE]
