Did you turn off indexing on the widows side for the drives in question?<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 4:52 PM, Dennis J Perkins <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:dennisjperkins@comcast.net">dennisjperkins@comcast.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Two Seagate FreeAgent drives quit working properly with Windows. Windows could still see them but writing would fail. Linux couldn't write to them either. I<br>
reformatted them and put a fileystem back on, and they work again.<br>
<br>
I have a couple of USB memory keys that I use with Windows and Linux. I can't write to them from Linux anymore but Windows can. I can probably reformat them<br>
and be able to write to them again, but I'm trying to find out what happened. The keys that I use only with Windows have never had this problem. I'm guessing<br>
that Windows did something to those two keys.<br>
<br>
The Seagate is automatically mounted so only root can write to it. My Passport, on the other hand, mounts so a normal user can write to it. I might need to dig<br>
down into the udev configuration to find out what is happening. Maybe the Seagate is being identified as a 3 1/2" internal drive; it's certainly big enough for it.<br>
