Happy holiday to all flowers:

I recently purchase a extra hardrive(250 GB) to attach to my 
mac(FACSCalibur) as a way to storage all future data in a central 
location.  I have unfortunatly discovered that the kind I 
purchased(Iomega  HDD 250 GB firewire desktop harddrive) does not 
like to store data directly from the machine and freezes after about 
10 data files.	I then have to shut everything down and start 
everything all over again.

I will use the drive for backup storage but would like to purchase 
one I can store data directly onto.  Iomega is trying to help but 
doesn't really understand the nature of our data.

I was hoping someone else might have tried this and found one that works.

thanks in advance for all your help-as usual
