Goflex 3tb Desktop USB 3 and thunderbolt

I have two 3TB Goflex desktop USB 3.0 drives.  I recently bought a thunderbolt desktop adapter and assumed I could swap the drives from the USB adapter to the thunderbolt. - no luck.  It appears that the drive needs to be formatted with the appropriate adapter.  I am using a MacMini i5 and 10.7.4 OSX.  If the drive is formatted on the thunderbolt device - it can only be used with that device.  Same applies with the USB3.   

 

What am I doing wrong.

thx
