Hi,
I recently purchased a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Desk Hard Drive for Mac 3TB.
I use it with time machine connected with Firewire 800 running latest OSX.
After initial backups it starts saying disk is read only. Then the disk disappears, cannot be mounted, randomly reappears, needs repaired.
I have tried to reformat a couple of times, the same thing occurs.
I have tried uninstalling all software that came with it, same thing happens.
I think it may be something to do with when the mac hard disk goes to sleep.
There seem to be a few similar sound threads on Seagate forum but no solution.
Has anyone here had a similar problem or know how to solve it?
Thanks!
Andy
