Hola!!

tengo un WD Elements (memoria externa) lleno de pelis, cuando conecto el disco duro a mi ordenador puedo ver la películas que están dentro, pero no puedo crear una carpeta dentro del disco duro, y tampoco puedo pasar archivos de mi MacBook al disco duro. ¿Alguien sabría decirme algo?

Hello,

It is possible that the drive is not formatted for Mac use. Try formatting the drive.
