Hello All,

Just got my C2D 15'' base yesterday, and so far so good.

However, I hooked up my USB 2.0 drive to the left USB port and it doesn't work. The light on my hard drive (portable) blinks. So I tried the right hand side USB, and the hard drive works fine.

I plugged in my mouse to the left side USB and it works fine.

Is the left side USB low power?

Thanks!
