    i have a dragon drive 2.5 160gig external but i cant get any computers to recognize it. it has usb2.0 port and a 1394 port and a dc 5v. there is a green light above a R/W indicator. does this require software or drivers?

    What OS are ye trying to get this to work with?

    I've recently used a similar device and just used a USB connector. Took a few seconds for windows to give the sound that it detected a new drive.

    My OS by the way is Vista x64
