[QUOTE="EndlessMac, post: 1145777, member: 140470"] So it seems there was just a faulty connection. That can happen with some enclosures that aren't well built. If you can't find a "correct" folder then you can just create a new folder to put your files in. I put all my files in the Documents folder with plenty of sub-folders to organize my files into separate sections. It's kind of a habit that carried over from my Windows days. Before the days of Time Machine it made manual backups to an external HD easy because all I had to do was copy my Documents folder and I had all my files backed up except for installed software applications and Mac OS system files. It eliminated the need to search for all my files/folders I wanted to backup. Speaking of Time Machine you should use it for backup or at least something but Time Machine makes it very easy and painless to backup all your files on your Mac. [/QUOTE]
