I have a Amitech Taveldisk 40Gb to store pictures while travelling. Last week I got an error that said “Init Failed” which was a bit scary. A couple of restarts made it dissapear and I could empty my memorycard onto the HD.
But to check things up I searched the Amitech site and found this article telling what to do. Only problem I couldnt find the original CD and Amitech doesnt seem to have the Fdisk tool for download…
Some more searching and I found out that the Amitech drive is made by a company called Vosonic and they hade both new firmware for my drive and the FDisk tool.
