[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1697968, member: 204485"] This really is an odd situation. Given that I agree completely with what has been stated by the other members ie a windows formatted EHD will simply mount like any drive and be readable like any drive having data dissapear after just plugging it in is an unprecedented event in my 25+ years of using Macs. My first thought then is that there is something wrong with the EHD. As already asked what format is it? I was assuming FAT32 but I should not assume so we need to know that. Also is it possible that the EHD has been partitioned and you are only seeing one (empty) partition? Is there any security software built in to the drive? Really clutching at straws here but there must be a logical answer. Cider Monkey, we would all like to get to the bottom of this so don't give up yet and keep the answers coming. [/QUOTE]
