Hi guys
I bought a 2TB WD Ext HD (USB 2.0 only) 2 days ago. I used it with my MacBookPro (about 2 years old still running leopard) and it worked fine. Then I bought it over to my Mac Pro (A couple of months old running newest 64bit Snow Leopard) and the drive is read only?
I would have assumed that the drive was Mac formatted, regardless of the OS?? Am I wrong?
I've checked the drive's ''info'' with no option to unlock the permissions (stated as ''Read Only''). I've also checked disk utility to see if I could repair permissions but unfortunately the option is not available.
What is going on here?
Thanks for your wisdom
