Added a second LaCie USB 2TB drive to my computer. I use one for storage and the other for my Time Machine backup. The Backup is looped through the storage one via FireWire and then into my iMac. I just added the second unit because my first Backup stopped working. When I put my computer to sleep, I notice that the blue light on my main LaCie stays lit blue and the Backup drive turns off, and then it will flicker on and then turns off and it will repeat this over and over. Is this an issue other than being really annoying?
SOURCE: I can't believe how slowly my backup is running
Try different backup software. I had a problem with Acronis, which worked fine on one computer, but not on another. On the other, Symantic Ghost completed a backup in about 2 hrs. for a 6GB system drive

I suggest an application called "Disk Warrior" it has always maintained high ratings among us Mac enthusiasts it has a hardware test function built into it and seems to be a little better at verify and repair functions than Disk Utilities which you can try also if you haven't yet. You may also consider trying a different firewire cable if you have one handy. Other than that a reformat should have put the disk back into an original state however the disk could have been damaged by not un-mounting it in rare mac cases. If you have the time you can also reformat the disk again although I would try the first two options first.

Hi,
from the description either th drive or the 1394 logic board has failed. Try having the technicians at you local PC shop swap the actual hard drive from the Lacie enclosure into a new enclosure and test it. If it works, buy the enclosure and you're back in business, if it oesn't and you need the data on the drive comment back with your Country, State & City and I'll refer you to a good Data recovery specialist in your region.
Hop this helps FixYa,
Chris

Let's not take this as a solution so much as an intuition. I believe you may have run up against a limit of physical disk space that XP can administrate.
DO me a favor and don't give my rating a thrashing if I'm wrong.
Best Regards,
Marcus
