My Mac was mounting my 500GB external drive HFS partition as read-only and NTFS partition as read-write. I tried to fix HFS partition regenerated partition table with GPT. Now I just have EFI partition mountable contains firmware, bootcode etc.
Just want to know if I can fix/regenerate partition map/MBR.
Informations (In last status/External driveis mounted as disk2):
diskutil list:

I wonder if Mac has a solution to fix/regenerate partition map or any way to fix drive.
Thank you much.
