Are window size/positions not stored for external media drives?

I've got an external FW drive I use all the time and it's getting really irritating since it will not remember the window information when I navigate it.

Any workaround for this?
 
Yep -- open a new finder window for the firewire device. Set the window exactly how you want it, then immediately close it. It should be saved then.

Do not click on any files, folders, nor should you open any folders or filesfrom that window if you're trying to set the view how you want it. *Open window, set window, close window -- nothing else. That should save the view and position.
 
I just tried it and it doesn't work for me. It works on the internal drives, but not the FW.

I tried all sorts of variations, including closing with keyboard shortcuts, with the mouse, mazimizing, dragging to resize, etc. Nothing works.

Not a huge deal, just annoying. I may have some glitch as I have not done a clean reinstall on this box for quite some time.

In a while I'll try plugging it in on another machine and see.
