Of course, ready made external drives using a system partition for whatever functions offered by the disk are problematic for similar reasons. Before trying to setup multiple partitions, you should test the disk with just one ntfs partition & no others. I have a WD passport that won't be recognised either by prepNTFS or by multiman.Īlso using more than one partition on the disk is often a problem.
Other possibility, your passport usb controller might not be compatible. Click to expand.First, make sure your disk is setup with MBR (master boot record) & not GPT (GUID partition table).
