It would click to announce connection but then pop up a message that the device would work faster on a USB 2 port and click here for list of ports etc. I tried the Maxtor drive in different USB ports - even on a different notebook computer but the result was the same. So I did the basics of closing everything down and rebooting system unplugging the Maxtor drive and starting again shutting down and turning everything off even unplugged everything from each other and surge protector and left off for few hours then set it all up again and tried again (read about residual current and heat factors causing problems).

Though prior to the windows backup I had my computer opened several times whilst transferring data from 1 drive to another and it was always there then. I went to my computer & it was as if it didnвЂ™t exist. When I did get it downloaded & ready to use I then went to setup the backup to find that the Maxtor drive couldnвЂ™t be located to send the back up there.

It took approx 20 trys to get my cd reader drive to work and install paragon drive backup (cos I thought with 3 drives it would be handy to choose which drive to backup and to be able to backup the structure I had set up after so many rebuilds with this computer). So after reading about different backup programs & talking to my husband that night - I decided to stop the windows backup & I deleted the partial content from the Maxtor drive with the intention of installing another program to do backups.Д«UT that is when the. When I came back to the machine late in the day it still showed 1 day and 17 hours to go.

Whilst out I purchased a few PC magazines hoping to get a bit more insight into better backup options. This blew me away a bit but I left it going and went shopping. The next day it was still going and was telling me it would take another 2 days to complete. So I put a Windows backup for my c drive into play before going to bed that night. state).Дay 2 I thought I really should be backing up just in case my notebook does crash

I then started transferring data off the notebook c drive to it as well - thinking by doing so I would speed my notebook up a bit plus THE BIG WORRY in the back of my mind was that the notebook was about to go physco again & therefore I wanted to get all important stuff off it before I had to track a NEC warranty agent down (previous crashes occurred whilst I lived in diff. So 5 days ago I purchased a Maxtor Personal Storage 3200 external drive thinking there would be no way I would ever run out of space then & could have regular backups timed to it off my notebook as well.Дay 1 went well - I moved the data off my small drive to it (so I could use the small one for backing up amended files when I travelled with notebook for work reasons) I checked stuff regularly & all looked good & was useable from the new home & the transfers and copying was quite speedy. (I have virus/adware/spy scanning in place & used to backup to discs and/or my small external drive) Seeing I couldnвЂ™t write stuff to cd/dvds we decided to go and buy bigger external hard drive.

I had a small portable external hard drive which I kept as much pictures (semi pro photographer so I have 1000s of digital files) and business data on as possible - I had tried backing up to it but it wouldnвЂ™t take the everything on my notebook plus the stuff already on small drive. It intermittently will not read cds/dvds and wonвЂ™t write new discs PLUS it makes this awful вЂњwhirringвЂќ and вЂњscraping noisesвЂќ when you press the eject button & close unit (whether disc in it or not) or upon start-up.Д«asically I couldnвЂ™t rely on it & because it was similar to problems that occurred when I ended up with the other warranty repairs I began to freak I would lose my data & programs. So I had my hubby undo the base of the computer to check out whether my battery part number fell into the range requiring replacement, which he did so that I could submit it to NEC for replacemt Since then (donвЂ™t why seeing the 2 areas arenвЂ™t connected?) my DVD/cd drive has been faulty. NEC advised a global replacement program for the battery. My Versa NEC E2000 notebook has had several problems under warranty since purchased under lease 2.5yrs ago - it's had 3 hard drives and 1 motherboard replaced under warranty.

Thank you in advance to any help I receive.
