Hello Fifthtexas, can you please tell us the make and model number of your hard drive? Because accordingly, there might be a write protection switch on it which might have been turned on by mistake. If you could list down the specification of the hard drive, we might be able to give you specific instructions to turn it off. :)

 

Hope that helps.

Write protection switches are more for SD cards.

 

1) In My Computer, right click on the drive letter of your SD card and

2) Eject it.

3) Then pull the card out and stick it back in.

Intel Q6600 @ 4Ghz (Watercooled)
