OWC has a number of different flavors of their "Mercury Elite Pro". Did you get the "FireWire 400+ USB 2.0" or the "FireWire 800/400 + USB2 + eSATA (aka Quad Interface)"? I'm assuming you bought an enclosure that had the 500 GB hard drive already installed, correct? Neither USB nor Firewire "work" for you? After three replacements? Have you tried using the enclosure on another system? (Borrow some time on friend's perhaps?) Do you have (or could borrow) another enclosure so you could test if that works on the system you're having problems with? (Probably best to move this to another thread with a proper subject line if you want to pursue this topic further). -irrational john -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
