I'm starting to think this case will never work with a Mac.
When I plug it into the USB port, the blue light comes on. It takes a few seconds, but finally the drives are mounted. I can copy small files (< 64k) just fine. Anything bigger than that (which brings up that little progress bar window) and the light goes out. Finder won't respond until I unplug the drive.
After this happens I can plug the drive back into the USB port and the blue light will come on, but the Mac can't see it. If I turn the drive's power off and then back on, I can start back at square one.
The blue light also goes off when I try to delete the old partition (trying to format it on the Mac). The Disk Utility freezes up just like Finder until I unplug the drive.
I've been able to reproduce this on my G5 and my old G4 iBook. Again, this enclosure works fine on my work Dell laptop.
My enclosure is an AddLogix (formerly CompuCable)
FireXpress Dual USB. I've Googled around and seen a couple of mentions of firmware upgrades but I can't locate a download.
Has anyone had problems with this enclosure? Should I just toss it and get another one?
Thanks,
John
