[QUOTE="poppi, post: 1608317, member: 214058"] [b]Lost external ahrd drive[/b] 1) Tried connecting the LaCie directly to the iMac (not through the G Drive) but it still does not show on the desk top 2) Not sure what this means. The LaCie is powered directly from a surge protector 3) I can hear (and feel) the hard drive spinning. The blue power light is illuminated 4) With disk utility open the LaCie HD is not displayed Perhaps a dumb question - our power company scheduled a power outage so I shut down the iMac but did not think to shut down my two EHDs. All 3 are powered through a surge protector. Is it possible that when power was resumed a surge fried the LaCie? Will welcome any further suggestions poppi [/QUOTE]
