GQ_RP Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Hey guys, I have Windows 7 and Mac dual booting off an SSD. Everything is working well except that my Mac Side isn't recognizing my 2nd hard drive. When I boot into Windows 7 I can see/use the storage drive no problem. Here's some background info Mobo: Asus P6X58D Premium Intel i7 930 HDD that isn't being recognized: WD Caviar Black - SATA III 64 mb cache - 1 TB - Format type: NTFS Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/225025-mac-not-recognizing-2nd-hdd-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

GQ_RP Posted July 15, 2010 Author Share Posted July 15, 2010 thanks for the reply... the program worked but now there is a problem... my mac side can read/write to the drive... but now my windows 7 -- if I try to write to it, it starts off quick and then slows down to a halt and/or crashes my computer! any thoughts?
