Okay so I just had my 60gb launch day unit finally YLOD on me. I had been doing back ups on an external HDD about every 6 months or so, but I went to do a restore on my new slim but the slim won't recognize the external HDD. Has anyone else had this happen? It's a WD Passport 500gb When I plug it it, it powers up the drive but nothing comes up as a selectable drive. Just seems odd because my old PS3 found it no problem.
I tried another 250gb WD Passport external HDD and same thing, it powers it up but doesn't show it.
The slim did recognize one of my really old Segate External HDD's (120gb) I wonder if it's because that is one that has it's own power supply?
