Under "My Computer" shows up as a "Local Disk" under "Type".

Under "Safely Remove Hardware" it shows up as "USB Mass Storage Device".

It is getting power and I can hear it cranking...but it's kind of like a stutter ... I just plugged it into my laptop and it's a full spin...not sure that it did that in the maro....

I have "not" tried an external power supply yet... I don't have a cord. I will try it if I can get a cord for it.
