The problem might not be with the hard drive. USB enclosures have a mixed reliabilty record, in my experience. Do you have another enclosure you can use to test the drive, or a SATA-to-USB cable?
Hi Paul, I may have such a cable; it's likely that I do. In the meantime I'll set up the Mediasonic because it has more capacity (for everything, not just backups) and there'll be one less item on the desktop occupying an electrical outlet. Thanks for the suggestion, Rich
