Ok, so I just got another 500gb MyBook and its acting up on me. I already have two running fine with my computer.

I have one firewired to the computer and the second wired to the first. When I plugged in the third one it will not show up.

If I turn off number two then it shows up fine.I was trying to figure out what was wrong when i noticed they had the same drive letter so i tried to change one but it changes both. For example, drive two was named "O", well so was drive three.

When I change three to "P" this changed drive two to "P" as well.

Is this the problem and if so how do I fix it? If not, does anyone have any ideas?
