Recover data from a LaCie external hard drive: To recover data from a LaCie external hard drive. I have a 320GB Lacie hard drive that i have formatted for mac, before when it did work the hard drive would run louder and the blue light would flicker and it will pop up on my screen, now the blue light is just on, run quietly as if it's not running anything and it does not pop up on my screen and it does not show on system profiler. Is there a way to fix this without reformatting the hard. I took the ultimate challenge in my own hands after Apple and Lacie Senior support was unable to fix the issue with the external Lacie D2 Thunderbolt 2 USB 3. Sometimes, your drive is formatted with the ext4 file system of Linux, NTFS file system, HFS Plus file system, or FAT32 file system which is not recognized by your Windows. Reformatting of the drive can resolve this issue. https://posaventcart1982.mystrikingly.com/blog/css3-buttonbuilder-v1-0-design-your-own-css3-button. For this, right-click on the partition, select format, and then select the file system.

Lacie Usb Drive Not Recognized

Hello there,
This is a big issue for me and its driving me crazy!
I just bought a LaCie Rugged HDD (with Firewire & USB) so that I can transfer files between my Windows desktop & PowerBook. I plugged it in first in to my PC, it connected fine & I copied a few files in to it. Then I connected it to the PowerBook, which said the drive format is not supported. So I changed it to Mac OS X Journaled using Disk Utility. And then I found out that that particular format won't work on Windows (I'm fairly new to the world of Mac), so I reformatted it to MS-DOS.
Still, when I plugged it into Windows, the drive never came up, although it showed up in disk manager software. I tried formatting it on Windows but the only available option was NTFS, which Mac doesn't support. This was all using Leopard 10.5.6 by the way.
I then formatted the hard drive again to MS-DOS, this time on Tiger 10.4.11. The drive was then recognized by Windows. But it doesn't allow me to copy any files, saying disk is full, even though its completely empty!
Can somebody advise me on what to do? I'm fed up with all the formatting & reformatting, its driving me nuts! At the moment I have a trial version of MacDrive 7 on my Windows PC so it helps me transfer files. The full version is expensive, & I want a drive which doesn't rely on other softwares to mount.
Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks!!
