Hi.

I got 3 external USB cable adapters to use with external drives like 
HDDs. I recently used a 3.5" SATA WD 2 TB HDD to back up with Time 
Machine with encryptions. 2 of them resulted Mac OS X not recognizing 
the connected drive and offered me to run Disk Utility which showed 2 
TB, but not its 3 encrypted partitions.

I had to use my old 1 that I used originally when I created/made my 
three 666 (amusing satanic sizes, isn't it?) GB partitions. Is Mac OS X 
(Yosemite v10.10.5 on an early 2015 15" MBP Retina with a 251 GB SSD) 
picky on detecting different drive controllers on those adapters and 
must have the original 1? :(

Thank you in advance. :)
