Re: Storejet 25m 500gb not detected in my computer....
Perhaps you should download updated software of your external hard drive. If still not working maybe your external hard drive is not supported by your OS or isn't compatible with your OS.

try other usb port, or other computer and see whether the hdd is detected. If still not, try to go to device manager ( http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000833.htm ), and then assign a drive letter to the hdd. After that, try to access it from Computer, if not able to access it, format it (use quick format) and then use asoftech data recovery program to recover your files. http://www.asoftech.com/adr/
click start control panel administrive tools ,computer management ,device manager scroll down universal serial bus controllers you should see a yellow question mark? right click to reinstall drivers make sure the lead/s that attach to this drive have a secure seating and are not bad/faulty the light on only tells that its getting power it might not be getting enough power you might test the lead/s or just replace the cable of the hard disk, when you plugged the external disk drive you got that windows could recognize the USB device change the cable everything should work fine again, sometimes the wires inside the cable will be damaged due to bending or stretching or placing heavy equipment upon the cable, hope this helps
Use partition magic 7.0/ 8.0/ 8.2 or advance, make new partitions and then format it. Sure, your problem will resolve. Let me contact for further more information.
Do you have another PC available to make sure the drive itself is OK? If it works on another PC you know for sure the drive is OK.
Uninstall the HD software through control panel>add/remove programs, then check the device manager and if the storejet is shown, remove it. Reboot, watching to make sure your PC does not search for the StoreJet (if it does, check your task manager for storejet software, disable it, then go back and remove it on the control panel again).
After a "clean" reboot, and after [patiently!!!] waiting for all your other subsystems to load, connect your StoreJet. It should be recognized, and be patient while the drivers are installed.... after your drive activity light stops, give it another minute.... then see if it is OK.
understand one thing....all USB devices act funny now a days....it's common...so i suggest u try it out on another machine...or on a different USB port...
if it doesnt work in WindowsXP try Win7
