[QUOTE="bernard smith, post: 1851647, member: 401391"] The drive is only used on Mac , so I will format it Mac OS Extended (journaled) and this time make sure that the partition map is set to GUID. Then I will use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy files from another correctly set up drive. Hopefully after this has been done I will run DU first aid again and see if it works with the disk now having been set up for Mac properly. Cheers Bernard [/QUOTE]
