Hello and Welcome to Fixya mhenrique296

Plug in the Hard drive. Double click My Computer and make sure you can see it.

It should come up as a removable drive.

Double click it, you then should be able to view the files that are on your portable hard drive.

Now Navigate to the pictures on your computer. Select the folder or picture file you would like to copy by clicking once on it.
Then right click this file and select copy.
Go back to the removable hard drive and right click and select paste.

Shortcut key are Select the file by clicking it once, then press Ctrl + C to Copy and then Press Ctrl + V to Paste.
Be sure to click on the file that you want to copy and also click in the window where you would like the files to be pasted.

The light is the power status light, if it doesn't lights up fully it means that the power circuits inside the drive are incapable of delivering the power to the hard disk because either they have been fried or the USB circuits inside the pc have failed. Simple test to determine which: plug the drive in another pc - if it behaves the same then i'm sorry to tell you but your hard drive has failed - hardware defect.
This cannot be repaired, you will have to replace it .

Hardware failure - the hard disk inside the case has died. Either replace the hard disk or buy a completely new unit.

SEAGATE FREEAGENT GO 320 GB USB HARD DRIVE P/N 9KW2AG-502 320GB SN:2GE7114P THIS HARD DRIVE NOT SHOW IN MY PC SO I REQUEST YOU TO SOLVE MY PROBLEM...... THANKS

Ebay is very good, if you could tell me the brand and exact model of the device I'll find one for you

Hi welcome to FixYa!

Fortunately I also owned a Seagate Freeagent Go 320GB just like you have. Can you be more specific detailing your error? I don't understand what do you mean by "parameter is in correct".

I hope this information will be helpful. Thank you for using FixYa!

which format fat32 or ntfs
make sure its fat32
Indeed, FAT32 only supports files up to 4 GB. I ran into the same problem when copying an ~4.5 GB file to an 8 GB flash drive.
There is a quicker solution that doesn't require you to reformat or lose data on the drive, using the command-line "convert" command. Suppose the flash drive is mounted to g:\. Open up a command window (start menu -> run -> cmd), and type:
convert G: /FS:NTFS.
Personally, I don't need the "security descriptors" on the flash drive file system, so I use the variant:
convert G: /FS:NTFS /NoSecurity.
The conversion should be very quick, and of course it has the benefit of not needing to move any files off the flash drive (since you don't need to reformat it).

hope this helps

Try All of your USB ports, some ports are not powered. If you continue to not have any response, the factory warranty should replace it.
