Re: ML370 hangs in boot process when USB drive plugged in
The Maxtor Knowledge base comes up with this when you search on 3000LE & Boot
===========
PC will not boot while Personal Storage drive is connected to system.
Question
The system will not boot with the Personal Storage device connected to the system.
Answer
This symptom may occur when the operating system is not able to properly shut down the drive when Windows is shutting down. Therefore, the system hangs when attempting to restart since the device was not shut down properly. There are several ways to get around this issue:
Cycle the power to the Maxtor Personal Storage drive prior to restarting.
Once your computer has been shut down, disconnect the power to the drive to clear out its buffer. Then plug the power to the drive back in before turning on the system. Windows should then load and the drive should be detected properly.
Disconnect the drive before restarting Windows.
When Windows is shutdown you can either disconnect the power or 1394/USB cable from the drive. Power the system and wait until Windows has been loaded. Reconnect the drive to the system when the operating system is running and the drive should be detected immediately.
Get latest updates from Microsoft
================
Sounds like there may be an issue at the Maxtor end....
Hope that helps
Eric

Re: ML370 hangs in boot process when USB drive plugged in
I did speak with tech support at Compaq. THey informed me that they support the use of HIDs plugged into the USB ports (keyboard, mouse), not mass storage devices. I then asked if I could plug a 3rd-party USB PCI card into the machine and get access to a USB mass storage device that way. The answer to that is that no 3rd-party USB cards are supported.
I guess the bottom line is that I won't be using a USB hard drive on this machine.
My next task is to figure out if internal IDE hard drives are supported. So far I've only seen mention of connecting the CDROM drive to the IDE port, but since I need a high-capacity short-term storage mechanism, I'm thing a high-capacity IDE drive might fit the bill quite nicely.

Re: ML370 hangs in boot process when USB drive plugged in
I was just looking on the update site and a newer BIOS for the ML370 G3 just came out on 12/16/03. One of the things it addresses is "A potential hang that could occur with USB devices attached during POST".
Maybe they fixed it...
Regards,
Seth

Here is the link to download the latest BIOS and this should take care of your server's USB issue.

Re: ML370 hangs in boot process when USB drive plugged in
At last, I have USB storage on my ML370. Many, many thanks to all who helped, but especially to the last two who pointed me to the new BIOS release.
