Deny access to external hard drive...

Hey there people,

Is there a way to make my external hard drive only work or even visible on my user account only? I don't want the other user account able to open it and see what's in it. Sensitive Data...

So is it possible? How to i do it?

Only way to do it and someone with any brains at all not be able to get in would be to use 3rd party software, link below is just an example not a recommendation. Once you know what to look for you may find a free version on majorgeeks or techrepublic.
