Hi,

I just recently ordered DriveStation HD-CE1.0TU2. My friend suggested that I should format is to NTFS but I did that using the Windows format thing

 

After formatting, I downloaded the HD-CEU2_DriveNavi.EXE or whatever it was named from the buffalo website to install the software. Well problems are occuring:

 

- I tried to install the softwares from the "Begin Installation" button then to Install-but it says "DriveStation not detecte;Check the data cableand power connection and try running the setup again". After checking everything i tried again but to no avail

-Decided to install the programs from "Additional Software Installation" and installed everything else.

 

But after installing TurboUSB, i cannot seem to enable it as when I try to it gives me the message "TurboUSB function cannot be enabled"

 

Well how do i resolve the TurboUSB issue? And does additional software and begin installation do the same jobs?

 

Help this sorta techie retard...haha

 

Regards,

Vishnu

Is the drive showing in "Computer" or "My Computer"? You dont actually need to install any software in order to use the drive itself.

 

Let know know what operating system you are using (XP or Vista)

well davo....when i go to "My computer"--under Hard Disk Drives its there as HD-CE2(H:)

I am using Windows Xp Media Centre Edition Version 2002 Service PAck 2.....

 

well i know the software is not important....but atleast I want the TurboUSB to work as I have heard it does improve the transfer speeds which I would like!!!

 

 What does Secure Lock Ware actually do? Just lock the HDD?

And are these problems being cause because I formatted to NTFS?
