External Hard DRive  

Yes, I did say the letters RAW were there but I didn't realise that was of any significance. What is missing though is NTFS and I was wondering whether was of any importance to helpo finding the drive J. If I try to put anything in there it says it is no longer located on my machine?

Hope this helops.

Doen't seem to matter which thread I p;ost in, I appear to be wrong in both cases.

According to your most recent screen shot, the J drive appears to be NTFS, healthy, active, and primary.

I'm unclear on the remaining issues.

Is the problem that the J drive is not usable? That you cannot put data on it by copying from another drive?

When I try to put anything in it I am told this drive is not located on this computer?

Oh yes, all the time and the red led is constantly shining at the front of it too. I have a mind to take it to the computer centre this morning and get them to have a look at it. They have a whole host of analysing equipment. It would save a lot of hassle and if they can sort it, it would free up your time for other forum users who perhaps are not so lucky to have a center like ours.
