[QUOTE="Buzzy Smith, post: 1361602, member: 234591"] Thanks yet once again! Next test is Drive 2 on the iMac, and put Drive 1 back online with a different cable (think I've tried this) and a different port and I may pull the FW WD Time Machine drive offline as well...it's been just fine, but I want to clear the FW bus just to see. And, of course, I will try USB 2.0 (again), too, just out of curiosity. I really want to know what's happening before I re-contact iOmega so I can be as clear as possible. I can't seem to find hardly anything on the net and I've tried every search phrase I can think of regarding Snow Leopard, iOmega issues with a Quad Core. I run a pretty lean system, as well, when I'm doing audio so I don't know what could be signaling these drives to spin down (unless, as you say, it could be a firmware issue). Buzzy [/QUOTE]
