LaCie told me it was an enclosure problem. With a new enclosure it was working again. For this drive, the drive mounts, can be re-partition, etc.. Here LaCie tells me it is not the drive. That's all I know. How could I try other drives in that enclosure? If you remove the drive from an enclosure you forfeit the warranty.
