Explain please "does not get recognized". Exactly what happens or
doesn't happen.
It is not recognized at all in any utility program or in any way. It
is like it does not exist at all. I will take your advice and try to
connect it through a powered USB hub and see if it shows up that way.
I just want to reformat it and use it as my TimeMachine backup drive
and storage of movie files to share between several different
computers, so each computer does not need to have a local copy of
every movie file I have.
