hey Fern, I just (yesterday) bought Disk Warrior ($100) because Disk Utility couldn't recognize my Lacie "Big Disc Extreme 1TB" drive...I got disk warior after reading some reviews that said it was more effective than the other ones... Unfortunately, Disk warrior couldn't recognize drive either... not sure what to suggest if your drive isn't mounting properly...since it needs to at least mount for these type of programs to do any good. I'm currently in the midst of an email "discussion" with Lacie since the drive is only 1yr 3mos old....they tell me it's probably the power supply but they won't send me a new one for free (3mos past warranty- go figure). my 2 cents...and sorry for the rambling -- --------------------------------------------------------- News Flash / Self-Congratulatory-Pat-On-The-Back: Reelife Productions Wins 2008 TELLY AWARD for "Establishing a Local Historic District" video (MA Historic Commission state contract) --------------------------------------------------------- Regards, Tom Adams Director/Owner Reelife Documentary Productions "cool digital audio/video stuff...not boring or dumb" 413.575.9707 Williamsburg, MA, USA www.reelifeproductions.com www.youtube.com/reelife http://web.mac.com/reelifeproductions On Tue, Mar 25, 2008 at 8:33 AM, fern <radiodjfern at yahoo.com> wrote: > ** The author of this post was a Good Dobee. > ** You too can help the group > ** Fill out the survey/skills inventory in the member's area. > ** If you did, we all thank you. > > > > I am looking for hard drive diagnosis and repair software for OSX.
