OK, I'm stumped and am now waiting for someone else to post the "obvious" explanation which is escaping me. If the 2.5" drive works with USB, then I would think there is no problem with USB. In other words, I'd expect the SATA->USB logic to either work or not work. But if the 3.5" drive works with eSATA, then I would assume there is no problem with the power supply provided by the enclosure to the drive. So why wouldn't the 3.5" drive *also* work with USB? Is there a "big" difference between the capacities of the two drives? (Maybe there USB has a capacity limit?) Was the 3.5" drive partitioned & formatted? Did you try more than one USB connector or connecting to another computer? Sorry, I realize that these questions aren't that helpful, but I've got nothing else. :-( -irrational john --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
