[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1022616, member: 46727"] According to the Qubz web site in the UK, the drive is powered from the USB port. Is that true for your drive? If it is, I find that unusual as most drives have their own built in power supply or use a power cube. It may be that your Qubz drive is not receiving enough power for it to adequately work. It may be able to eject, but not read or write disks. And I noticed that the drive instructions do not mention being compatible with OS X although they do mention Linux. Anyway, try hooking up a separate power supply to the drive and see if you have any better luck. Regards. [/QUOTE]
