If this were Windoze software, there would be some way to turn the
software off.
i think this is solvable, but vague descriptions are not going to
cut it; obviously your gurus don't even know how to google so let me
give you what i've got: first of all i plug multi-format drives into
Macs all the time and get no such pop-up

given the right details i can do some googling for your gurus
I refrained from commenting, because I could not for the life on me
figure out why he would get such a message other than what you've
mentioned about some irregularity in the formatting of a dual use
drive. Oh, and a La Cie drive as well. Any drive I use is reformatted
with the current version of Disk Utility before I use it. I don't use
the "One Button Backup" or other little things that come with many
drives, so do not need any software that they include on the drive.
