It's 3TB, and I routinely use both 3 and 4TB.


Ah, in your original post, you said 'connect to the computer', and I took that to mean you were inserting internal drives into an external device which connects to a PC with a USB cable. Many of those devices cannot go above 2TB w/o a firmware update. Sorry.

Charlie Parker - One of the few things I was able to inherit from my father was a 78 rpm of Charlie Parker and his brother. I had a friend who also appreciated their music, and he had a very expensive HF system. He asked to borrow the album. He broke the record. AGGGGAH!

Call the manufacturer! The problem is the size of the HD and the device you're trying to use cannot handle a drive so large. With some of these devices you can download a firmware update which will allow them to work.
Good Luck!

"Jet fuel doesn’t burn hot enough to melt steel."
I remember two overpasses in California on separate occasions collapsing due to vehicle fires underneath them.
Which burns hotter, gasoline or jet fuel?
The one in Oakland was a tanker. https://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/30/us/30collapse.html

The bottom line is that we should have at least 2 backups, and one is kept off site.

An old trick/hack is to put the bad/failing drive in the freezer for 2 hrs. I've never had to test this advice until now. Boy I hope it works. ;-}

The cops were dressed as American tourists- 2 guys wearing shorts, running shoes ....


LOL, is that a Parisian stereotype of an American tourist? Now I know where the phrase 'Ugly American' comes from. ;-} But you forgot to add the "Oh my God! Look, it's the Eiffel Tower. OOoooou!!!"

I once did a contract in Edinburgh and stayed at a hotel. One morning at the breakfast buffet, I asked a waiter what the bottle of Scotch was for. I did not expect his answer, "Ach, mon. We put that on our oatmeal."

Some of what I say has been said a'fore, such as: be aware of the area's reputation that you are in; maintain a situational awareness; don't advertise wealth. With a bridge camera, I don't use a camera bag. Keep your head up; and if your wife is with you, she should not be waring expensive jewelry. And that includes her wedding ring.
Be careful in the metro. I've been to Paris several times and so far, so good. As others have said, have yet to feel concerned, but there's always a first.
FYI, when traveling, I use an old wallet w/only a small amt of cash in it. Important documentation & cash, are kept in an inside the pants pocket. Finally, I use an old bridge Cannon SX50. However, I don't believe the average street thug is that discriminating. ;-}
Was last in Paris last October and am eager to go again soon. God willing, we're going to Italy and the Dalmatian Coast this Sept & October.
Good luck to us all!!!
