Any help apprecoated.
It certainly looks like either the disk drive's USB interface or your
computer's USB controller isn't working.
You can try attaching the drive to a different computer or attaching
different high-speed USB devices to your computer. That should
indicate which component is at fault.

It's a dual boot desktop. XP sees the usb hard drive, and I can run the
WD extended diagnostics on the drive.
googling did show some other reports, e.g.
http://forum.freespire.org/archive/index.php/t-6479.html, but no solutions.
Any linux diagnostics that would be useful?
