[QUOTE="empty_noise, post: 1016692, member: 48094"] Are all the cables secure? I had this happen to me a while ago, and it turned out the only problem was that the usb cable plugged into the external drive wasn't seated all the way in. Now, if all the cables are seated property and you can see that the external drive is working (the light on it is on or whatever), and it still doesn't show up even in Disk Utility [I]then[/I] you have a really big problem.
