So I did an extra test: I right clicked on a raw file and opened it in dt. That went well too. But when I try to open a complete folder from within dt, it doesn’t work. The software only sees the disk, but not the files on it, wich are visible on the Mac outside of dt. On the website it states that dt only works with intel processors on Mac, but I am able to work with dt on my M1 Macbook Air with files that can be found on the local harddisk.
So I’m really curious about how to get my connection with my external HDD working. Suggestions are more than welcome! (Kernel permissions haven’t been looked at yet, since it interferes with the highest security level of my Macbook and I don’t want that if not strictly necessary.)

I forgot to mention that the files can be read when connected to the Macbook. I’ll dive into the Kernel permissions first and update you guys later.

My first thing to look at is can the M1 see the files on the Windows box? Using a standard file manager/browser on the M1 navigate to the Windows box and the location of the image files. Attempt to view them in a file viewer. If that doesn't work then dt won't be able to work with the files either. Best then to consult the experts in that area before attempting again with dt.

The tip was: format it. The HDD is ntfs formatted so I bought and downloaded this license for ease of use and quickness: https://shop.paragon-software.com/277/?scope=checkout <https://shop.paragon-software.com/277/?scope=checkout&cart=226074&enablecoupon=false&cfg=paragon2018> &cart=226074&enablecoupon=false&cfg=paragon2018. The installation seems to be done correctly (I got this on screen message saying something like ‘All you have to do now is restart your laptop and enjoy your ntfs files’). What else can I do to make this work? I didn’t download the latest version yet. Will it work on M1 Macs? The installation notes say that Intel is required – can that be it? I can hardly believe but I just needed to ask.
