External hard drives are portable storage devices you can use to back up files or transfer content from one computer to another quickly and safely. While external hard drives vary in design and storage capacity, turning them off properly is ideal because it decreases the chances of damaging or corrupting files. Whether you are using Windows or Mac OS X, you can safely eject and turn off your external hard drive in minutes. Safely eject your external hard drive before turning it off if you have connected it to your computer. To do so, click the "Safely remove hardware" icon on the system tray on the taskbar. T he hardware window launches. Click your external hard drive's icon in the hardware window and click the "Stop" button. You should see the "This device can now be safely removed from your computer" dialog message. Press the "Power" button to turn off your external hard drive. Some external hard drives turn off automatically when you safely eject them. Right-click your external hard drive's icon on the desktop if you are using a Mac, and then click "Eject." Alternatively, drag your external hard drive's icon from the desktop to the "Trash" bin. You should no longer see your hard drive on the desktop. Press the "Power" button to turn off your external hard drive

Transcend produces different kinds of memory modules, including Random Access Memory, or RAM, chips for computer systems, USB flash drives and a variety of flash memory card formats, such as SD.

Transcend's flash memory devices are usually preformatted with either FAT32 or NTFS. Macintosh systems primarily use the HFS+ file system format.

You can format a Transcend flash memory card to the FAT format using the Disk Utility program on a Macintosh.

Insert the Transcend flash card into a card reader connected to the Mac.

Some Macintosh computers have SD card readers built in.

Open the Disk Utility program in the Utilities folder.

Click the flash card in the left column of the window.

Click the "Erase" tab.

Click "MS-DOS (FAT)" in the "Format" drop-down list.

Enter a name for the flash card in the "Name" box.

Click "Erase" to format the flash memory card to FAT.

Hope this helps

Hi,

Hard drive recovery software is the exact answer for your question how to restore crashed hard drive Mac data. Some days back, due to software conflicts my Mac hard drive was crashed and I was unable to access my data stored in it. I was really tensed because the stored data was very much important to me. Then I searched over the internet and found this software which successfully restored all my lost data and I was very much happy after getting back my data. The software can be downloaded either from official website or by simply clicking here.

Good luck,

Fiona Dsouza

You might try the drive on another computer to see what result you get. If the same, I would try a repair operation on the HD to see if that helps the situation. Right-click the drive, click Properties, Tools, and run a repair. I don't know if you'll get that menu option.If not, I would next try Explore, This PC, Computer (at the top of the window), Manage, Disk Management and see if the drive is seen there, and whether you're offered a repair option.

It could be corrupt. try reformatting. free software: https://www.disk-partition.com/free-partition-manager.html
