Hi folks! (first time posting Booyah to you all!)
I have several WD MyPassport drives and realize that one of them was setup wrong / funny / not what I want now. I suspect this older drive was just set to be a backup device at one time and in the process the WD software assumed it should be UDF. Since then, I have added several drive and I was just organizing them and would like to change the UDF system to NTFS.
Worst case, I can copy off the files (day and a night) and what… reformat? (we’ll get to that later.)
Hoping that there is a conversion utilility that will help me reconfigure.
Below, are the my drives. I want the U drive (which mounts from Q: drive) to be NTFS not UDF. Possible?
| Drive | Label | Filesystem | Intent |
| O: | WD Unlocker | UDF | Unlock to S: |
| P: | WD Unlocker | UDF | Unlock to T: |
| Q: | WD Unlocker | UDF | Unlock to U: |
| R: | WD Unlocker | UDF | Unlock to V: |
| S: | MyPassport S72 | NTFS | Windows local file store |
| T: | MyPassport T33 | NTFS | Windows local file store |
| U: | WD Unlocker | UDF | Windows local file store |
| V: | MyPassport V74 | NTFS | Windows local file store |
In my Computer panel the U: drive shows up with the unlocker drives instead of with the “hard disk drives”:
