Seagate External Drive Not Waking I have a Seagate external drive that I save my backups to. I run my backup around midnight, when the computer has not been used for a good 5-6 hours. A computer (Mac or Windows) won't format a blank drive or reformat an already formatted drive without first prompting the user (unless there's some data-destroying malware at work or something).
Will my Seagate drive work with Windows 10? Seagate has evaluated current product lines to determine which ones will be supported in Windows 10. Older drives that are not listed here may work, but have not been tested.
