[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1802950, member: 204485"] If this is the case you could of course simply make direct copies of the files you want to save. You can copy such things as your Photos library iTunes Library etc but it's a big job. Can I ask did you reformat your external HD when you erased it? Sometimes reformatting to say ExFat then back to Macintosh OS Extended (Journalled) can help to completely erase the hidden files on an external drive. [/QUOTE]
