Hi,
I have a 500gb Ministation (HD-PC500U2/BK-EU) which was working fine (well the cable was sometimes a little temperamental, but otherwise fine) and then one day it just didn't work. Didn't show up on my Dell Laptop (Windows Vista) - or any other computer I tried it on - PC or Mac. For some reason now after a couple of months it shows up in the hard drives section of explorer, but when I go into properties it says it has 0 bytes of data on it and if I double click on it it comes up with a message saying: 'You need to format the disc in Drive G before you can use it.'
Does anyone know if there is anything I can do, or if it sounds like it's fried itself somehow? I took extra good care of it, didn't ever drop it or such, it was working one evening, but not the next morning!
Any advice appreciated. Many thanks, Jamie
