SOURCE: firelite wont mount on my computer
look at its format, (NTFS) or (FAT32)? and check the DRIVER for the hdd to see if it has any complications or errors, this is easyest fixed by deleting the HDD driver in Device managment and then restarting the computer. good luck.
SOURCE: recognized - but no mount
Don't know about the MAC part, but an I/O error implies that the either the source file cannot be read or the destination drive will not write. This is usually an indicator of a bad HDD. To check, I would attempt to connect the external drive to another computer. If it still gives the same indication, contact the drive manufacturer about data recovery recommendations
SOURCE: mac not able to read drive
disconnect mybook from the computer then disconnect the power cable to turn the mybook off completely. Plug it back in after a few seconds and then reconnect to the computer. Worked for me and didn't lose any data.
SOURCE: All data has "disappeared" from my 300G usb 2.0 drive.
you can use a software called g parted , you have to make a dos bootable , and then mount volumes to make the drive ready.
gparted will help you... try the trial version .if you dont susceed let me know.

Whenever there is an HFS Volume could not be repaired issue, that means that your hard drive's existing volume has been damaged and may not be retrievable. In most cases like this, you would be advised to perform an Erase and Install to correct the damaged directory on your portable HD. However, as I understand that is not what you want to do, you may want to research Mac Utility software like these titles below:
Disc Warrior 4.1
font.f1 {font: 12.0px Helvetica}
(for Macs from Alsoft)
Tech Tools Pro 5.0 (for Macs from Micromat)
Drive Genius 2 - Mac (for Macs from Prosoft Engineering)
These are three of the better hard drive diagnostics, repair and directory rebuilding software on the market for Mac Users. I have used them a number of times as a professional onsite Certified Mac technician and they have helped me to help the customers I assisted many times over.
These Mac Utility software all have a price point of under $100.00 and when you are able to experience just how well they work, you find it is worth the investment.
an HFS volume error is repairable with the right software and these utilities are your best option aside from outright erasing and installing your Lacie HD.
