interesting! i have one of these that i just gave up on, but still have it. its an orange light? is that what you found to be the issue w yours? i tried just now plugging it in, in 2020, and it is a fairly rapid constant orange blink. was wondering what issue yours was as i would be down to try a repair on this!
I think that the HDD inside the case is great, but the case board/light seem to get in the way and causes problems, so I completely removed my drive from the case and put it in my PC where it performs great. I just did a Live Stream on my channel where I took the drive out of this case, so check it out and let me know if you still have questions and hopefully I can help! Good luck!
@@krislovescalifornia oh man thanks so much for your kind reply! :) i think i had the 750gb one, the case had the orange light- i feel like im going back to like 2009 maybe when i last used it but it would be so cool to get this working! i will try to take the case apart this weekend and try to run it internally! i'll def check out your livestream vid on that and try to do that this weekend!
how can you open it up so easily... mine is glued shut for some reason. Have to bend it open by full force.
How do you get the accrual drive out of it's metal holder?
Remove the rubber feet(glued on). They hide the 4 screws holding the drive in the bay.
