[QUOTE="andrebnu, post: 387903, member: 28649"] I've had similar problems when I bought a hard drive pre-formatted for mac os, and tried first to do a backup of some files on a windows computerr. Windows indetified the usb connection, but the HD wouldn't appear in "my computer". In the Device Manager, the driver was there, so apparently it was ok. For that time, though, I was only able to use it on windows, after formatting it for NTFS. [/QUOTE]
