Quicker mounting of external Firewire drives
BrentT, your drive and/or Jaguar install sounds messed up.
This is not a hint, just troubleshooting that is specific to your machine, as it is evident that this is not the norm. My external drive mounts within 10 seconds as well, methinks you have system problems. Check the Discussion Boards at Apple, you might find some help there. --- ---
Quicker mounting of external Firewire drives
Not a system problem, necessarily. A few months ago, I started running into the same issue with an external FireWire drive. Turns out the drive was going bad, and "fsck_hfs" was being run on it before OS X would allow it to mount.

It may not be your system software. Some older, or just badly made, firewire cases are just problematic for any OS to handle. Also, sometimes the cable is barely functioning. I have a cluster of 5 firewire drives, all made at different times, and by differnent manufactureres. Some of them may even be pre-oxford 911!!
evident?
Your posting is what the second reply to the hint. The first person didn't have this mounting problem nor have you so it is evident it is his machine? I think not.
evident?
haha man, your system is screwed.. you shouldn't be having those issues. |
