Hi absolut,

Welcome to SevenForums!

I have a Maxtor M3 Usb external 1 TB. When I plug in show me message:

I can't see device in partition program.

Is it a USB3 HDD?
If so, you will need the appropriate drivers for it!
Does your MB support USB3?

I hope this helps!

You should either update My System Specs, as suggested by Paul Black or provide the full model number for your motherboard to get an answer to that.
