Not sure who you are talking to, but for me I cannot mount the drive anymore.
When I tried I get:
Verifying volume “1tb-system”Verifying file system.Journal need to be replayed but volume is read-onlyChecking Journaled HFS Plus volume.
Here is what disk util returns:
Disk Description : PNY USB 2.0 FD Media
Total Capacity : 64.37 GB (64,369,852,416 Bytes)
Connection Bus : USB
Write Status : Read Only
Connection Type : External

USB Serial Number : AD8BHE04000000262
Partition Map Scheme : GUID Partition Table
Which I cannot do.
This was a such a large USB drive that I put 3 partitions on it when I got it.
One was the OS install for Mavericks, another was a DOS partition.
The drive has no r/w switch or button, but it says it is read only.
I just was able to delete everything off it, so I suspect it is OK, there is just
something weird going on. I have tried it on other systems, other USB ports,
same thing.
Got this thing at Fry's and it was not cheap either, used it once to the copy
the install file. I think I also wrote some printouts to the FAT partition and
printed them at Kinkos. I highly suspect the drive works, but something is
preventing it from working.
There is not much on the net, a couple people have had the same problem.
This is an old drive I was going to just toss but I never got around to it.
I just found it and thought to try it again.
