[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1831152, member: 204485"] I have two LaCie drives but they are a few years old now. As with all EHD's I have bought I erase it completely using Disk Utility and format as Macintosh Extended (Journalled). If the EHD can be seen in Disk Utility then that is what i would suggest. If not then one would have to take it back to the point of purchase. It seems EHD's are getting too smart for their own britches. Kajaboss, did the sales person say it was compatible with macOS or did it have the macOS logo on the box (looks like the Finder icon)? It would be a good idea to upgrade your OS if your device is up to it, that may well solve your problem and your current macOS is unsupported now, meaning it will not get security updates so you are a bit vulnerable to online malware and hacking.
