* Many thanks for all the suggestions! I disconnected the 320GB HD, re-booted, changed USB cables, changed USB ports, zapped PRAM, tried Disk Utility, Drive Genius, and TechTool Pro. None of them recognized the HD. I'm out of ideas. I'm afraid I have a bad HD -- all of which happened when the power unit broke. IOmega replaced the power unit, but still the HD is not recognized. Any other ideas? Thanks in advance, earle * ________________________ Earle Jones 501 Portola Road #8008 Portola Valley CA 94028 Home: 650-424-4362 Cell: 650-269-0035 earle.jo...@comcast.net
