[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 694206, member: 56231"] This may seem ridiculous, and maybe you've tried it already, but the connection sequence might make a difference. 1. Power on your computer as usual, 2. Then power on your external hard drive, 3. THEN plug your ehd into your computer I do not know why this happens, but an external Hitachi hd I use is not recognised by either Finder or Disk Utility unless I use the above sequence. [/QUOTE]
