LaCie External Hard Drive

My brand new LaCie 10TB External Hard Drive is not loading after spending all weekend adding image files to it. Also the desktop icon changed from the initial black HD profile image to a generic orange icon right before my eyes as I was opening Adobe Bridge.

Now the images are not showing up (400GB worth) and Bridge is spinning and spinning without loading any images.

What is going on?

Hello Indy-Walker,

Should that still persist, have you had the chance to test your external drive with another port, cable or computer?
