I have an odd problem that I've not seen documented in searching the forums.
I just put a new Kingston SSDNow A400 240GB SATA 3 Solid State Drive into my MPC Live 2. When I first switched on, nothing appeared. So I connected via USB in controller mode and used Disk Utility in Mac OSX to format the drive, which had no partitions. I used EXFAT and GUID.
Now I can see the drive in MPC Live 2 standalone mode, and I can save to it. But it's not working normally. When I press shift the option to "format drive" is greyed out... and the eject drive button is missing. I've attached a pic (the relevant drive is called Untitled). Also, when I copy over the Synth folder to install Solina, Odyssey etc, on an SD drive, it works fine. But when I put the folder onto this oddly functioning SSD drive, it doesn't seem to see the synth content, or offer it as a plugin.
This is obviously maddening. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make this drive work?
