External "Mac ready" easystore External HD
I got an easystore 2T "Plug and Play" drive (that is USB) because it claims to be "Mac compatible." But, I Plug it in and the drive does not let Play, which to me means, create a folder and copy files to it.
To them, Play means to format it as a Time Machine drive.
But, I want TimeMachine nowhere near this drive. How do I use it as an old fashioned external drive?
Thanks
