[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1630788, member: 175845"] Some WD external drives and some other brands often have an normally invisible partition with some of their propriety software that could be running in the background. It may show in Activity Monitor and Disk Utility can show all partitions if the Debug menu is enabled and set to show invisibles. A full Partition/erase/format will usually get rid of the extra partition. And get all the available HD space back as well. Their software is NOT needed if it exists and can cause other problems.
