Lacie 500gb external drive
I am running two 500gb external drives off my media 100 edit.
Trouble is one of the drives refuses to appear on the desktop, or indeed mount.
I have had problems over the past week, but eventually it did start with persistance!
From cold, the drive makes all sorts of creaking noises, then after about fourty minutes it spins up; but the blue ligh continues flashing and the drive doesn't appear on the desk top.
The drive sounds normal but the blue flashing light suggests something isn't.
Can anyone help?
Yours hopefully
Mike

The disks inside the HD are not spining. The creaking noise is the HD trying to start. Next time when it does start transfer all the files ASAP cause your drive is about to die.
