RAID is not a replacement for a backup! Here's why.
Both of my new 1tb drives do this. Auto shutdown. Noramally this is fine except that they won't start back up without restarting the computer. Power them off/on and the light comes on for 1-2 seconds then off. Unplug ups/firewire and same results.
How to set these drives so they work correctly?
Thanks
What is the exact model number of the units?
I can do some research for you once I know what I have to look up.
I'm having the same problem with USB 3 Drive Station. This unit has no such switch that I can see, having to constantly restart my computer to enable the drive to be used as a back up for my Lightroom 3 catalogue before I shut down is a bit pointless?
BTW If I unplug the unit and power it up again, it starts to spin up then shuts down
Any help appreciated.
