How can I assign a drive letter to a usb external drive that XP no longer recognizes?
Hi. I am using XP SP2.
The drive is working OK, but had some problems with OS yesterday and had to uninstall e reinstall USB. Now the drive is seen, but I cannot assign a drive letter. I need to do something like fix/mbr, but how can I do that on an external usb drive?
Thanks
Ami
Windows is supposed to automatically assign a drive letter to the drive. If not then go into the properties for you external hdd and see what options it gives you..
LaCie Hub Now Shipping, Connects eSATA Drives via Thunderbolt (Macrumors)
Announced at CES earlier this year, the LaCie's new Thunderbolt eSATA Hub is
now shipping. The device allows external eSATA drives to be connected to
Thunderbolt equipped Macs. The daisy-chainable hub includes two eSATA ports
and retails for $199.
eSATA is a high performance drive connector used to connect external hard
drives to your computer. eSATA has never been a standard option on Macs, but
is a faster alternative to USB 2.0 and Firewire and is commonly found on high
performance external drives and storage arrays.
For those who are have existing eSATA drives or are waiting for Thunderbolt
drives to drop in price, this could be a good interim solution. The Hub isn't
yet available for order on LaCie's website. We spoke to someone at LaCie's
sales center who told us the first batch had sold out, but that more were to
arrive in a few days. Interested parties can contact LaCie sales directly to
place an order for one of these backordered units, and it'll ship out when
LaCie receives them.
