I have a LaCie 80G drive. It was $250 for 80, USB 2, and if it works it should be pretty darn cool. It is recognized by the kernel, so I thought I was doing pretty well, but when I try to actually do anything with it, I run into trouble. Here are some messages from /var/log messages, first hte successful boot stuff and then the failure messages: Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: uhci0: port 0xbce0-0xbcff irq 11 at device 31.2 on pci0 Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: usb0: on uhci0 Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: usb0: USB revision 1.0 Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: uhub0: Intel UHCI root hub, class 9/0, rev 1.00/1.00, addr 1 Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: uhub0: 2 ports with 2 removable, self powered Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: umass0: LaCie LaCie StudioDrive USB2 , rev 2.00/10.06, addr 2 : : Feb 3 04:31:21 i8k /kernel: da0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 target 0 lun 0 Feb 3 04:31:22 i8k /kernel: da0: Fixed Direct Access SCSI-0 device Feb 3 04:31:22 i8k /kernel: da0: 650KB/s transfers Feb 3 04:31:22 i8k /kernel: da0: 78167MB (160086528 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 12631C) : : Feb 3 05:08:48 i8k /kernel: (da0:umass-sim0:0:0:0): READ(06).

Based on previous response to USB queries on the questions list I doubt that excessive responses will be a big problem. I'm including the questions list here more as an "FYI" sort of thing. PPS: Why, oh why is there a /dev/ad0 and a /dev/da0? What do they stand for? It's darn confusing and it makes me nervous as heck doing "dangerous" operations where I am one swapped letter pair away from wiping out my primary drive! -- Brian T.
