WD Studio - cannot retrieve files

WD External Drives External Drives for Mac

Hello,

Since you were using the drive on a Windows computer and you had to reformat the drive to run the backup, you wont be able to retrieve the files on a Mac since the drive will not show up ready to use.

My recommendation on this case, is since the drive is showing on the Mac probably as read only, try to get the files manually out of the drive.
