Well, that's the problem, the LaCie, just like any other hard drive
that comes off the shelf, needs to be formatted. Take your pick of
which one you'd like to use and I guarantee your problems will be
solved.

correct. didn't seem to need it. copied a doc to it with no
problem. when I tried to format per the manual, there was no
choice for mac so i assumed it was already formatted.
My LaCie HD came formatted for *Windows*; the owner's manual strongly
suggested it be re-formatted for use with a Mac (using Disk Utility).
