Flashing Green Light? - Whats it doing?

Hello All,

I my wisdom to try and encourage my drive to trancode my photos (which I still cant see all of) I decided to reboot the drive. The reboot came back with an error message about needing to reconnect to the drive. SInce then I pulled the cable out of the back and let it start up and now I get a continous green flashing light? what could the drive be doing. I can see the files and connect to it.

Cheers

Brian

It looks like your drive is trying to trancode your photos? The Green light indicate drive activity.
