 As far my original issue on this thread:  problem solved -

- the external cases that I bought (VENUS model -  not sure of the brand -
bought at Frys $69.00 ( " Frys - I should have figured!")) that said they
were for Mac and PC -  was untrue -  they did not work with Panther 10.3.x
in my  Sawtooth Macintosh.

-  I returned them - and bought ADSTECH external cases - and they work fine.
