Drive Station Quattro issue
« on: March 28, 2009, 12:49:01 PM »
   

All my drive LED's are flashing amber after i replaced a single drive and it's not recognized in Win Explorer.

 

Any ideas?

   Sounds like a disk check, how long has it been going for?

I talked to BT tech support and with my own troubleshooting it seems I had 2 or more of the drives fail/corrupted. Originally BT tech support diagnosed a bad logic board in the unit but my advanced replacement unit had the same issue when I transferred my HD’s into the replacement unit. BT sent another unit and I had the same problem, again.

 

I put the HD’s, sent with the replacement unit, into my old box and “voila” the unit is recognized in Windows Explorer and working. Over 800GB of music & 140GB of photos/vids gone ... sigh.

 

I guess I’ll be buying some more HD’s to back up this unit.

 

Ah, the joys of computing and the tenuous shelf life of data.
