Hi everyone,
I'm an administrator on my XP Pro SP2 machine.
I have a hard drive attached to my machine via a USB 2.0 drive enclosure
(I'm not sure if this fact is even relevant). I can use the drive with no
problems. When I right click on the drive letter and view properties,
"General" tab, I see I do *not* have the option of compressing this drive
for some reason.
Oddly, I have a second hard drive attached to the same machine via another
drive enclosure and this drive *does* have the option to compress.
Both drives are NTFS.
Can someone offer some insight as to why the one drive cannot be compressed?
Thanks very much.
Alan
