"Has the drive been formatted already?
Does it show up in disk utility?"
Yes, It's been formatted by disk Utility and shows up when connected
to the native USB1 port on the Quicksilver and also when connected to
a cheap USB 1 hub. The new PCI card is a USB 2.1?
However, originally I think the drive shipped as a Fat 32? which I
erased because I tried to CCC a bootable system on it. That didn't
work but I did get a successful back up. I was running OS X 10.3.9 at
the time and now I'm on Tiger 10.4.11
