Hey guys,
I'm having trouble mounting an external hard drive after I changed it's permissions to 777. With "get info" on the disk itself I changed the permissions of me, staff, everyone to read & write access for the whole disk incl. "apply to enclosed items". Now I can't mount it, disk utility tells me it needs repairing, but repair permission and repair disk both fail. It gave me read access at one point but obvioulsy I couldn't change the permissions from there.
It's a 2TB disk in a JBOD enclosure if that makes any difference and was serving as SMB media server for my home network via USB on my router (Linksys E4200).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
V
