[QUOTE="verdi1901, post: 1631400, member: 321905"] You can protect an external drive with a password in Disk Utility as part of the Erase/Reformat process. However, I believe it cannot be done without losing existing data, so you would need to back it up first, then write it out again afterwards. Jonathan [/QUOTE]
