I Can't Figure Out How To Get My Computer To Recognize My Lacie Rug Fwsa.
I received a Lacie Rug FWSA hard drive in my package for a previous program in college about a year ago, and we set everything up at school. I've been using it with no problem at school because all the computers there were macs. But now that I'm not in that program anymore, I am trying to unlock my hard drive again to use it, but my pc doesn't seem to recognize it. Is there some way I can get it to become compatible with my PC? I have all the cords it came with, and none of them allow my PC to recognize it.
