Hi, I got a 320GB external HDD. I've partitioned it into 3 parts. roughly 100GB each. Is there a way that when the HDD is pluged into different computers, only one partition will show?
I don't think it is possible at all if you are swapping between different machines.... unless you put a filesystem on the partitions you want to hide which the operating system can't access. http://www.computing.net/answers/windows-xp/hide-a-partition/142330.html http://youmaniahack.blogspot.com/2009/05/how-to-hide-partitions-without-using.html
Yes you can make partitions not show,you'd need a partition manager to do it,the only way you'd know there was a hidden partition is by looking at the drive with disk manager however you would not be able to access the data unless you had the software to unhide those partitions,try this one it's free & is based on partition magic 8.0 http://www.partition-tool.com/
