RAID is not a replacement for a backup! Here's why.
Is it possible to find drivers for windows 7 for unit described ?My laptop won't recognise.No arsey answers please just help.
They are generic UPnP drivers built into the OS, buffalo to not manufacturer nor supply them.
Does the laptop make a sound when you plug in the device as if its recognizing that a new device is being plugged in? Are you able to see the drive through disk management?
I am trying to backup my laptop data to another device. thats what the bloody buffalo drive is for. Windows 7 will not recognise it.Any further idea's?
You didnt answer my questions though. Does the laptop make a sound when the device is plugged in? And can you view the device through disk management?
YES laptop makes noise when plugged in . Identified in Control panel as USB SATA bridge.Trouble shooter Error 10. Is not recognised in My Computer.
What about disk management? Start, right click my computer, computer management. Then in the new window go to disk management. It should show up as a drive with around the same size in GB's as the unit.
Unit is not recognised in Management
Can the unit be detected by another other pc?
Don't have access to another machine
You could try another usb cable. Otherwise it could be a faulty unit. It should show up in disk management.
or it could be your PC, you surely have a friend, you can test it on that.
have tryed new cable reinstalling windows and buffalo still says device working properly any one no wot to do.
The only other thing you could try would be another pc. Otherwise you'll have to take appart the case and get to the drive. Btw, this will void your warranty and I cannot help you do that. Other users may know how to do this though.
