I have a problem with my external drive freezing quite often. It also freezes finder in the process. Is there any way to take care of that process? When I restart finder, I lose my desktop, and finder still won't work. Any ideas outside of rebooting?
Got a tip for us?

Verify and maybe repair your external disk in Disk Utility. If that doesn't help, would reformatting it be convenient?
