I bought a 2 TB Seagate GoFlex hard drive earlier and wanted to partition it into several disks. One for time machine, one to use as a slave and extend my internal hdd, and a third to use as a media server of sorts in the house between the Mac and other Windows based computers.
When I plug it into the Mac directly after the partition, the separate drives appear fine. However only two of the drives appear when I plug it into the Airport Extreme and locate it over the network.
I've tried partitioning it differently (Mac OS Extended, ExFAT, NTFS, etc) and no matter what, I can only get the first two disks to appear. I tried doing a search, but all of the problems seemed similar to this but I couldn't find a proper solution to this one? At this point I'll just return the drive and build my own server which I was going to do eventually, I just ran out of space and needed a quick fix until I put together enough money for a proper server.
