[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1014183, member: 8287"] Oh that drive. A friend has that one except his had FW800 and ESata also. It's been a pain for him actually but I got it working. Does the drive show up now that it's FAT32? If so open Disk Utility. Click on the drive. Click on the partition tab. See at the very top where it says CURRENT? Click on the clicker by CURRENT and on 1 partition. Then on Options and if you have an Intel Mac select GUID. Then on Apply. Let us know if that works. Also after you change current to 1 partition be sure the file system is mac osx extended (journalized) . [/QUOTE]
