I have tried to initialize the disk - no success. So I'm now into the realms of support forums and web searches. Back to disk management=> Disk initialize - Failed. ii) Used USB connection - device manger can now recognise the drive. i) Used eSATA connection - device manager did not find the drive. Inserted the drive (Western Digital WD5000AKS - WD Caviar) into an Akasa e/SATA caddy.

Cracked open the case (data is more important than a Р’Р€60 drive). Open disk management (Right click my computer, manger, disk management snap in). So I have tried the following based on PCW in store help and the Buffalo tech support team help (who basically stated they did not have a solution to this -Р’В suggested I useР’В UFS but this does not work as the drive is not recognised as it is not initializing). I can see the drive in the device manager but it does not show up in Explorer. The external drive was plugged in and fell onto it's side but appeared to be in good working order although it made a bit of a grumbling noise to start with. I bought a new Vista Laptop (HP HDX 18) and plugged in the Buffalo drive. My laptop subsequently died - but not a problem, all of my files were on the Buffalo drive - result! No. After which I bought the Buffalo HDCE2 and transferred all of my files onto the external drive.

I have tried various programs to check the drive for bad sectors but the problem when even booting it directly from floppy (inc the drivers for the USB ports) the disk is not recongised as being there. So I tried to get the disk to inititialize but I got the Cyclic Redundancy Error Check. After various attemtps to plug back in, reinstall drivers Turbo USB etc I checked the Disk MAnagement and I could see the drive but it was not initialized. Every thing was fine until recently when I plugged in the hard drive and it did not appear. It installed perfectly fine on Vista and I was able to transfer all my music onto the larger drive (freeing up much needed space on my laptop). A few months ago I purchased an externalР’В Buffallo Drive Station with Turbo USB (HD CEU2 - 500GB).
