I think when it comes to hard drive brands, it’s one of those things where a some people have a lot of problems and others have no problems at all.
Personally, I’ve never had a problem with a LaCie. I have one that I got in 2005 that is still running problem free. My d2 Quadra just demounts occasionally when I wake up my computer.
Luckily, it hasn’t erased anything, but I’m hoping the advice I got from this thread keeps it from demounting. I have a feeling it was the “automatic” setting I had the drive set to. The drive I got in 2005 doesn’t have a switch; it’s just always on, and that’s probably why I never had a problem.
Anyway, thanks again guys. Always a help.
