hmmm, you didn't mention how or where you formatted. the prob. could still be a bad Y cable (the cable itself could be bad) connection and/or incorrect jumper settings on the master and slave drive.

I formatted the drive in computer management > disk management. I will check the master/slave jumpers again and if it does not work set the jumpers to Cable Select later on tonight.

Have you tried formating it yet. Stay away from exFAT file system i think thats what the problem is. if you get a chance try this free backup software it comes all the smaller versions of the passports [url]www.dmailer-backup-software.com[/url] if you do want to use the drive for backup that is.

..Or, you can give Partition Magic a try. I think it can change NTFS to FAT32, im not very sure abt this though. but what i know is, you won't lose any of the Data you have in the HDD.

There's no need to convert anything, if all that is wanted is access to NTFS volumes from DOS.

They won't show up with df unless they have been partitioned and there are valid file systems installed in those partitions. These devices should show up in /dev however.

Finally got it working today.... turns out the version of RedHat we have doesn't have the NTFS modules installed and the module we had downloaded was the wrong one (for a different build of RedHat or something?) Eventually got it all up and running but thanks anyways, never thought of looking in /dev/ for it! :)
