I am using a LaCie d2 Hard Drive Extreme on my imac g4. My problem is the disk will not mount and when it occasionaly does it will un-mount very quickly.
Return it to LaCie as defective. Ive seen about 20 of these be just bad products. They're unreliable and HUGELY overpriced.
Build your own in like 4 minutes just buying the parts from newegg.com
As to your specific disk... its the circuit inside more than likely. I looked up in my records how many times ive had bad lacie disks..
problems w/ lacie drives : 19
problems specific to the drives and not computer: 17
problems that were not resolved by wiping drive or partitioning it: 14
those were returned to lacie and they just replaced it. Good for them, but thats A LOT of bad drives, and my understanding is that its not the disk's, but the circuits inside.
