[QUOTE="Redhalton, post: 1143860, member: 179974"] Hi I recently upgraded my iMac from a 2 1/2 year old iMac 24" to my new system which is the latest model iMac 27", specs are in my signature. With the old iMac I was running at least 4 ext HD and all was well. Now with the new system 2 of the extHD are read only. Right now I need to focus on the HD where there is data I'd like to keep. I guess I could reformat the drive but that would also erase the data and this is what I'm trying to avoid. [IMG]http://www.10grand.ca/images/read-onlyextHD.png[/IMG] How would you recommend I proceed and how can I avoid this problem in the future? I really look forward to some help in resolving this issue and appreciate anything you can offer. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
