Norton Ghost will not allow me to mount the drive in safe mode so I can't edit the drive properties. Maybe I misunderstood? Am I able to edit general drive security settings as opposed to editing the settings for individula drives?
Let me know if you need me to clarify my questions. I'm having a difficult time wording this in a way that is not complete nonsense.

I really appreciate your advice Dortz, good suggestion.
