[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1637075"] Reformat it would be the simplest way. If you can't do that, "get info" on the drive (select the drive, press command-i) and then scroll to the very bottom of the info sheet, unlock the lock with your admin password, then check the box that says "ignore ownership on this volume."
