THX for the reply,i've search all over the USB external drive & only switches or plugins are power switch,USB plugin,& an on/off switch....also went to Seagate to see if they could help.but they didn't have any info regarding write protection for there hard drives.it seems something happened when i lost some data on my C drive & reloaded my backup from the F drive to get back the data.I still don't understand how a hard drive can get write protected?
