Hey guys!

Got a used Fireport earlier this year from ebay and sadly didn't get a


chance to try it out until now...and it won't work. It fires up, has
power, powers the drive, but the software always says that it can't see

a
ny
drives connected.

I've tried this on Mac as well as PC...does anyone know if there's any


tricks I'm missing here to get this to work? Used both the HDtools app

a
s
well as the native app that Alesis released.

Any help much appreciated!!
Thanks,
Sig


Do you run an older OS? Alesis has a bulletin about updating the OS as


Fireports aren't recognized by an older one.

Ahhh David!! You may be onto something here...this particular one (we

have 2) is running V1.15 - that article states that the drives made with
the latest versions only work with the Fireport...however, the link for the
OS download is dead. Does anyone have the last OS that was made for the
HD24 on hand?

Thanks!!

Found it here, but beware that the line is wrapping so you need to copy all
of it to paste in the browser.

It works.
