Wakiyan missed a "T" and the .com in the address.

I've gotten this error on my external drive when I connect my dv camera through the drive and then plug it in. For some reason plugging in the DV cam sends a quick signal through the external drive even though the cam is off. So what happens is I get the bell noise like it found new hardware followed by the disconnect sound right after it. After I go ahead and DO turn on the DV cam and try and capture I immediatly get a "delayed write failure" error.

In my case I think it has something directly to do with connecting the cam THEN plugging it in...in that order. I always plug the camera in THEN connect it and haven't had the problem.

GmElliot that was exactly my troubles and my HD is a Maxtor and I found the fix at the sight I mentioned in my previous post. The sight had alot of good info and a fix for my HD 30 second fix and works like a charm so far.

I have 3 maxtor firewire drives, I get the error only on the oldest one. It will usually work the first time I plug it in, then fail shortly there after. I always thought my drive was bad. I will check into it when I get home.
