Turn on your Mac and connect the WD easystore hard drive using a USB 3.0 cable.I then tried reformatting it by erasing and setting the format from Windows NT File System (NTFS) to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) for my macOS Sierra (Version 10.12.3.

After doing so, I was still unable to utilize the drive (unable to create new folders, drag/drop anything).

Hi, When I first plugged in my new WD easystore 2 tb portable drive, I installed the necessary software off the drive.

If you want to find the same huge capacity drive for the same price check out the Elements, which is available at Newegg for $250. The Easystore is Best Buy's proprietary drive, but today's deal matches one we shared yesterday on the WD Elements. WD Elements / WD easystore Embedded & Removable Flash WD ReadyView.

Right now, this 14TB version of the drive is less expensive than the 12TB version available on Best Buy's site. That's a $50 difference over what the hard drive was going for yesterday, and it matches a low price on this version of the Easystore. Best Buy has the WD Easystore 14TB desktop hard drive on sale for $249.99.
