Encrypting backup drive won't work

Qualitymark · 2014-12-24 07:48:28

I'd like to encrypt my backup drive, which is a Passport that I've partitioned in two partitions. I'm using Yosemite on an Air. The encryption option is greyed out; is this because it's a particular type of drive, or because it's partitioned?
