It is new, but not empty so I don't want to reformat yet. Other externals mount with no problem. It has mounted before. I was moving it happily between desktop G4 and Powerbook G4. LaCie just say take it back but as it is visible in Disk Utility I wondered if there is anything else I can do. The minute I take it back to the dealer I lose all chance of getting the files off it. It is set to be visible in the preferences aswell. It is ironic that it is a Porsche mobile drive...that's going nowhere. arf arf.

I have a Firwire LaCie Porsche type external hard drive that is seen in Disk Utility but will not mount on the desktop on a Mac running 10.3.4. If anybody has any ideas I would be most grateful.
Couple of questions: is the drive new, and empty? Have you tried formatting it using Disk Utility? Have you selected what to show on the Desktop in Finder>Preferences? Ok, I know, that's three questions :-)
Thanks for the suggestions though.
Patrick.
