I have added a disk drive and was copying photos to this drive (F) but now it
is telling me that the disk is write-protected. How do I unlock this so I
can add additional photos?

Need more info. You state "disk drive". Is it internal or external? If
external, check the manual to see if it has a write protect switch. What
is the manufacturer? Any more info you can provide would be helpful.

This is an external disk drive by Iomega and came only with an installation
CD but no manual. I bought this online. Thank you for your interest.
