I was hoping somebody had the same trouble and could tell me what to do.
I had to unplug and move my 750gb FAP. Up until then the drive had no problems and worked fine. Of course the yellow light comes on, so I hooked the drive to the PC and ran the utility to shut it off (no other utilities were run). I kept the drive plugged in and swapped out the usb for the esata cable. Re-booted by pulling the plug on the dvr and waititng. It saw only the internal hard drive. I powered down the internal, unplugged it, and swapped in a new esat cable , checking for tightness. repowered and still can only see the internal drive list of (old) recorded programs. Anybody know what I can do to solve this? Thanks in advance!

I have the standard hd dvr via hdmi.

Thanks, I was able get the esata connection to work. But i can't get the fap lights off utilities to engage while the drive is connected to the PC and the dvr together.

I can get the yellow light to go off if i just use the usb to connect the pc and the drive. But i can't get the dvr to see the external drive after i reconnect it. this is a pain...
