My scenario:
1) New MBP and new Seagate FreeAgent Desk 2TB external drive
2) Formatted drive as MacOS Extended (journaled)
3) Mounted with direct connection (USB) and copied about 100GB to the drive
4) Attached to AE running 7.4.2 over USB
5) AE turns amber and throws an error on the utility--"Disk Needs Repair"
6) Reattach to desktop with no problem. Disk Utility shows no problems.
7) Currently have another LaCie 250GB drive attached to the AE, and it works perfectly.
8) Downgraded to 7.4.1 and 7.4 with no change. Upgraded back to 7.4.2.
I've read about a myriad of problems people are having with USB AirDisks, but can't seem to resolve this. The drive is formatted as HFS , and I really am not in the mood to reformat it to something else for the sake of the AE.
Anyone with a similar setup or any ideas on how to resolve--would be very appreciative in hearing from you. Thanks.
