What type of enclosure are you using, is the actual enclosure made by Western
Digital? We use a 'generic' enclosure with a 250GB ATA Western Digital drive in
it - and aside from not having USB 2.0 host/speed... it works quite well. Mounts
as /dev/da1s1d.

Recently, I purchased several Western Digital External Hard Drives to be
used for backup purposes. The test unit I purchased worked out of the
box, but I am having problems getting the newer ones to work.
When they are plugged in to a FreeBSD 5.3 or 5.4 server, I receive the
following messages:
Nov 8 01:31:12 test kernel: umass0: Western Digital External HDD, rev
2.00/6.02
Nov 8 01:31:12 test kernel: uhid0: Western Digital External HDD, rev
2.00/6.02, addr2, iclass 8/6
This is where my confusion lies. From what I can see the hard drive is
detected properly as a umass device, but is also detected as a human input
device. And, the da device, which I think I will use to access the device
is not created.
If I plug my memory stick into the USB port, the memory stick is detected
and I am able to access the device through da0.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Jay
