I have one of these with a WD 120G drive installed. Has anybody else bought
one of these and got it to work sucessfully?

The firewire interface doesn't do anything. XP will detect a drive is
present but I can't partition or format it. The USB2 does work but the drive
disconnects itself every 5-10 minutes and has to be power cycled, which is
extremely annoying.

I can't find a website for the manufacturer either to get newer drivers.

Any help most appreciated.

Thanks

Fergal

If you can still get your money back do so and run. Sorry for the belated
answer
