| 295591 | 2004-11-24 02:27:00 | Hi don't know if this will help but had a similar problem with a 200gb drive using USB 2 in a caddy and mine did not support ntfs ,although not a problem as I needed to use it on winME, with help from this forum I got it sorted ok ended up connecting to XP machine and formating Fat32 and partitoning into 32gb chunks reinstalled in cady and has worked fine since |

| 295595 | 2004-11-28 23:30:00 | Hard drive is a Maxtor 120Gb. Strange thing is that the old USB 1.1 caddy will see the NTFS disk but the newer USB 2.0 won't. Crazy. |

| 295596 | 2004-11-28 23:40:00 | Just thought I would crosspost this here from USBMan - regarding booting from USB: "WIndows 2000 and XP do not support booting the OS from USB because USB is not a recognized primary storage media - only secondary." |
