I'm wondering if anyone can help me out here; I have a strange situation.
I'm running Windows 8 and I have an external hard drive that won't let me access 900GB or so of its 1TB. The drive mounts about 10GB, and the rest is nowhere to be found. If I go into Disk Manager I can see both of them: the 10GB reads as K:, FAT32, healthy, active, and primary partition, while the other 900 reads as healthy and primary partition, no letter or anything else. If I right-click it, my only options are delete volume and help. It's brand new, and the 900GB has nothing on it.
Here's the catch: it's not my hard drive. This hard drive actually has to go back to a Mac user, NOT a Windows user, to reiterate. I've only got so long with this thing and I have to put some files on it. How can I make this 900GB usable for me so I can put files on it, and then usable for a Mac user?
I'll provide any information you need. Thanks!
