My maxtor 500GB external drive was working last night. Now it is just blinking white every 1 and a half sec... or so. How do i fix it? i don't want to have to take it apart and what not- but I will if i have to.

My Maxtor 1TB blinks every 1 second normally.
It means it's processing data.

Maybe thats just my model.

Usually if the light is flashing or something that mean's computer is accessing it...
Are you sure you don't have any application's/games/movies/ anything on yuor HDD that your computer is using?

Unplug your usb cable and plug it to another usb port

I have tried that, also i have tried using a different power supply for the Drive.

I have tried rebooting, uplugging and waiting..etc

Its not the USB its the Power. (I think)

If the spare power adapter you plugged in is not near or its beyond the range of the original then you can fry the enclosure and the HDD.

I didnt fry it, because the problem already happened, and its the same thing happening..

Have you tried any other USB device, and does that work?
It could be your USB hubs.

I doubt its that, because the light is flashing on and off..

But i will try it anyway.. got to get another one though.
