Hi guys so im using windows 7 and currently partition my drives with EaseUs.

I have an external drive and an old ps3 drive both formatted to FAT 32 so it will operate with my dj decks. Although they wont pick up on a local disc so i need to change these drives into removable.

How can i do this fast and easy ?

Thanks !

External drives should not show as "Local Disk" anyhow. They should show as a drive letter and a device name, same as a CD/DVD drive. As such, they are already treated as removable storage.

If an external drive is shown as a "Local Disk", there is something wrong with that drive (usually).

The only way you can convert an internal hard drive into removable storage is to remove it from the system case and put it into an external hard drive enclosure.
