Thanks for the assist. I see what you mean.
Unfortunately my original problem (the drive keeps falling asleep) keeps recurring.
Someone advised me to alter the sleep timer settings which I did (setting it to ‘never’ but the **bleep** thing still keeps falling asleep. The only way to wake it up is to unplug the data cable (or so it seems). Its just like trying to wake up a lazy teenager in the morning - it ‘invariably falls back to sleep and only gets up after lots of ‘persuasion’’.
Perhaps I do need to update the firmware??
When I bought this drive I didn’t realise it was going to turn into a hobby!
Thanks again
Terry
