[X Newbies] USB Drives and OS X

[Diego Terneus]

Well I solved the problem.
Went to Fry's got a firewire enclosure, transfered the drive to it, 
started up my imac, turned on the drive and voila! I now have 2 
firewire drives daisy chained and an additional USB port on my 
flat-panel iMac!
Thanks for the suggestions.
