#Seagate mac installer dmg full version
In my case I managed to work around it with the free version in combination with DiskUtility but if you need to recover files you probably need the full version (I could see the drive content but since I did not care about it, I just formatted the drive). So it seems tools like Disk Drill etc can accomplish more than what Mac OS offers and it might be worth looking into if you have this issue. I tried all other options I could find, using command line, disk utility etc and this was the only thing that unblocked the situation. I think DiskDrill unblocked something.Īfter mounting, I was able to format the drive successfully. So I went back to Disk Utility that previously did not allow me to Mount the broken drive and tried to Mount again and now it worked. However, I found it interesting that DiskDrill could see content and offered me to mount the drive so I wondered if it had done something good. However I could not select mount in the Free version and could not pay 89$ for recovering a non-important drive worth 30$. When doing that, Diskdrill showed me drive content. I was not able to kill the fsck process either, it just kept going.įinally I downloaded the free version of DiskDrill and clicked on the Rebuild button. In my case it looped around the Could not repair after 3 attempts" error but then it just restarted the tests again. The drive was detected but when it is plugged in fsck starts to execute and it seems to run indefinitely. The HDD are formatted to Windows NT Filesystem and after running this software I am able to transfer files of any size to my HDD. In fact there are 2 versions, one is.exe (for Windows) and the other is.dmg (for Mac). I tried booting into Single User mode and ran all the fsck commands with no success. I have purchased multiple Seagate External HDD and they come pre-loaded with this software called Seagate Dashboard Installer. The external drive did not show in finder.
