I just got an external firewire drive and the only thing that would work is to have NO jumpers on the pins on the hard drive. Worked like a charm. Thought I was going bananas! Deb in Rhode Island Same here! I bought a USB 2.0 enclosure and the instructions, in the finest Engrish, advised me to install the drivers from the accompanying CD and set the drive jumper to "Master". Right! After about an hour installing, uninstalling, reinstalling and some "colorful language", I found that no drivers and no jumpers was the way to go.
