I have a WD 3TB My Book Drive. My PC is running Windows XP and I have 6 (I believe they are all 2.0) slots. My PC doesn’t recognize it all, it says that the drive malfunctioning or corrupted. I have another external hard drive that works just fine in it.
Here is the kicker. I plug it into my laptop’s 3.0 drive and it works just fine and I can move files and read from it just fine. Is it possible to somehow damage the backward compability of the drive or am I over looking something?
Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
