I've got this WD 120G Caviar 7200 rpm drive. I stick it in a FW/USB enclosure. I've tried setting the jumper for slave, master, neutral and single. I haven't tried cable, but it doesn't seem to make sense to try that.
Works fine in FW, especially in Neutral, very fast mount. But it won't mount via USB no matter what.
I've tried 3 "native" ports on the G5, all of which support other USB devices, though none are drives. Tried another A/B cable. No change.
ideas?

USB on the enclosure might be bad. Put an optical drive in it and see if it shows up.

Seems like every combo unit (USB/FW or CF/SmartMedia) I've ever had is actually a roulette shot - part of it works and part of it doesn't.
