| USB HD keep crashing... Ok, I have a IDE HD I put into an external USB enclosure, and ever since I been using it with my new Powerbook, it keeps on crashing..Like when I try to backup my 15GB of iTunes music, It crashes about half way. Any ideas? Are USB HD unreliable?  |

| Make sure that the drive is straight and level. And it needs vents or places for hot air to get out or it will frequently crash. I would guess that the case has vents.

| When you say, "it" crashes, do you mean the hard drive or the computer?
