TechTool Deluxe was unable to see my external FireWire drive for
purposes of a surface scan.
However, my computer was still able to not only see all three
partitions of the external drive, it was able to open one of them
(backed up from a different Tiger Mac) and boot up a game from it.
Now that Yersinia's suggested that area, I sure plan to.

Hi. I have a Quicksilver 2002 G4 with an OWC 1.8 Ghz CPU upgrade. The
hard drive is a Seagate Barracude IDE 80 gig drive. It’s a few years

The computer is working perfectly, but I’m unable to back up the hard
