I bought a IT-CEO 3.5" Sata external hard drive enclosure.
It has its own power supply and USB 3.0.
The HD is a Samsung HD103SJ, 1TB, 7200rpm.
A new iMac and a 2013 MacBook Air won't recognise it at all.
The hard drive was formatted in Windows and has an iTunes music library I want to transfer.
The enclosure appears ok in a Linux computer.
The hard drive works perfectly when plugged directly into the second slot inside the Linux computer.
I can get Western Digital external drives formatted in Windows to appear in the two Apple computers without any trouble but not this enclosure.
Am I doing something wrong?
