I purchased http://www.ebuyer.com/product/177125
and this is my problem:
When I connect the external hard drive into the USB ports, the flash drive gets power (the light is on) and the "Safely remove icon" appears on the app. tray. It doesn't appear in My Computer nor does it appear on Disk Management.
The device shows up in the device manager with no yellow signs. It shows up under Disk Drives and under USB controllers. Under properties, the location of the drive is written as Location 0.
The USB port works on other items (i.e. printer, fan etc, i-pod), but not this hard drive and another hard drive that I have.
I have the Y cable (3 usb's) and have connected the hd via all 3 but it still doesn't make any difference.
Any ideas please?
