NTFS cannot be written to with DSL. What file format is your SATA?

you just write normally with fat32,

i have no trouble with fat32 except for once when copying files from linux to fat32, the directory names would not let the first letter capitalzed and kept lower'ing them.

But I have not been able to reproduce that since then, which sorta annoys me :angry:

Did you "Mount" the newly appeared partitions?

Open up emelfm and go to the /mnt folder

Then right-click on one like say "sda1" for example and then choose "Mount" from the context menu.
