USB HDD volume is RAW?
My USB drive shows up in Vista RC1 as having a RAW volume. If I take the
same drive and plug into a XP SP2 PC it is fine (NTFS and data accessible). Any ideas? |

USB HDD volume is RAW?
It's possible the particular enclosure is
causing the problem. The first USB enclosures I tried would not permit me to format the hard drive in the enclosure. I sent them back for a different brand and they work perfectly. I just tried mine on both Vista x86 & x64 and it works fine. The drive is recognized as NTFS formatted and I can access the files. I also change the drive letter to "U" as I have in in XP & XPx64.
