[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1696767"] Uh, no, this didn't happen as you describe it. When plugging in a new drive, a dialog box will appear asking you if you want to use it for Time Machine (a backup system). IF YOU SAY YES, *then* it will format and prepare it as a Mac-formatted drive. Otherwise it will simply mount the drive. Also, Macs do not do anything when taken "out of the box, plugged in, switched on and nothing else" other than as you what language you prefer as a precursor to setting the machine up and creating the user account. So either you're talking about a Mac that has been previous set up by someone else, and we have no idea how they've set up their machine and you'll need to go ask them, OR you've left out tonnes of crucial detail. Care to try again? [/QUOTE]
