[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1900799, member: 83420"] FWIW, I agree with Jake. Connecting an EHD via a Hub can be problematical especially if it is not independently powered. If you are using a Hub (even powered), try connecting one of the EHDs directly to the Mac. If all works well, there's your answer. If it doesn't work, then look at the cable. Are you using an adapter? Could be the wrong one (probably not but...); a poor connection between cables? And whilst I'm mentioning adapters: if you are using them, are they Apple adapters or third party? If third party, that could be the problem. Lots of accounts of faulty adapters from sources other than Apple. When you've read this and experimented, please come back with details of your exact setup. Ian [/QUOTE]
