[QUOTE="iknowjack, post: 185545, member: 15533"] [b]Problem Fixed - USB Drive Now Working!![/b] Nope, couldn't see the drive with disk util. But I have managed to get the drive recognized now on my Mac OS X iBook. Very simple explanation really. The USB External Drive enclosure comes with a USB Lead with double USB Adaptors on one End of it. Basically one needs to plug both of these USB Adaptors into both USB Slots on the G4 iBook,it will then power the External USB Drive sufficiently for it to be mounted and work as it should. So problem on this one fixed. Thanks for reply [/QUOTE]
