I have found my G- Drive deep in the disk manager folder but it wont seem to let me use it or store anything on the drive?
Hello Alexander,
G-Technology products are formatted HFS+ out of factory so to use the drive cross platform or in a Windows environment they must be reformatted. Below you will find a link to our KB guide on formatting for windows use you can also call our support center and an agent can help walk you through the process.
