[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1496562, member: 71075"] Not surprising. The Mac may be trying to boot from the EHD and since it's not a bootable device, it's failing miserably. USB ports can be flaky if the connection isn't proper. I've seen USB connections on my Mac go because of a slight bump to the cable. When I say slight, I truly mean slight (depending on how the cable is hit). Is there anything that could be doing this? Did you happen to install WD software? [/QUOTE]
