Hi keebo,

I think it's a power supply issue, Mac's suggestion is a possibility as well. If you have a bunch of other USB devices, and you're using ports on the front of your computer or a hub, you could see symptoms like that. To confirm if it's a power issue, you could plug it in directly into a port on the back of your computer or temporarily remove some of the other devices. Your self-powered USB hub would solve this. The 1.5 TB drives aren't USB powered so you wouldn't see the same issue with those.



Hi Andrew,

I took it apart but the connection seemed fine. I gently removed and reinserted the connector a few times in case of debris or what not. I'm working a 48 shift right now so I will see what happens on Thursday.

I was going to try plugging it in the back of the PC but it was late and crawling under my studio table in the dark amongst a myriad of wires, cable components, etc. is not a task I take lightly. That is the reason I have a audio patchbay, a 48 switch MIDI switcher, and the two new USB hubs that are on their way hopefully soon.

I think I may not have been clear on my 1 terabyte HD. I ordered the Iomega Prestige 1 TB USB 2.0 Desktop External Hard Drive as a backup device, not one from PGMusic.

Thanks for your reply.
