    Hello, all,
    I looked thoroughly through the archives to find an answer for this, but I could only find answers that were partially related. I welcome your expertise in this matter (and please, if possible, try not to offer tips on using encryptors to avoid what is already the problem or other unrelated solutions.)

    Problem:
    I have an external drive. The data on it was compromised when it was accidentally left at a client's office. I need to be able to locate information on the drive that details its access history. It would be good to know if it was mounted at all in the time that it was gone, and the times/dates of mounting. Secondly, it would be good to know if files were accessed, and the times and dates of file access. Any related information, such as machine names that were connected to the device would be wonderful.

    I have NOT connected this drive since it was taken back from the client site. I didn't want to spoil the chances of getting this "drive and files mounted/accessed/connected" data.

    Thank you for any help.
