I bought a 2TB G-RAID 2 weeks ago. I'm using it as a backup disk (time machine) and to store an ever expanding aperture library. It has been working perfectly since I set it up over 10 days ago.



Today I got home, woke my iMac from sleep and the disk was not mounted, so I checked all cabling, restarted the disk and my Mac and still it is not mounting

I've also tried using different cables and have also tried USB as well as Firewire. The G-RAID sounds and looks like it is working.

My Mac:



Anyone have any ideas, help or advice?

Failed drive?
I can only assume it's four drives 1TB drives, or two 2TB drives in RAID0.

Can you access any of the drives by means of a door, or is it all sealed up?

It's completely dead. As I only but it 2 weeks ago I've returned it.
