[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1538748, member: 46727"] Very well worded first post. I wish all our first posts were done as well. And Welcome to the Mac Forums. Things I would try: If possible, swap cables and adapter for the FW drive. Not likely, but maybe the adapter went south. As for the Seagate drive, run a verify and repair from Disk Utility to see what it says. If you have access to another Mac, try both drives with it to see if they mount. You can even use a PC but of course don't allow Windows to format either drive! [/QUOTE]
