After experiencing a hard drive crash of my LaCie external 80 gig Firewire drive today, I can advise on how to avoid this based on what I learned from LaCie tech support:
1. Don´t use the drive out of the box in Mac OS X. It will work and appear to be fine, BUT it is formatted with Silverlining "which is incompatible with OS X".
2. To prepare the drive first boot from the LaCie CD supplied with the drive and run Silverlining Pro.
3. Check that the ATA-Firewire bridge firmware is the latest version (currently 3.12; mine was 3.11, which puzzled the tech support as drives should be shipped with the version provided on the CD. Update firmware if needed.
4. Boot back into X and partition/reformat the drive using the Apple hard drive software supplied with X.
The good news is that Disk Warrior was able to rebuild the volume information on the drive with no loss of infomation and I was able to remount and backup files.
The bad news is that none of this would have occurred if LaCie had included some warnings and instructions with the drive.
Ett annat inlägg gör att jag tror att det skulle gå att mounta den fast då behöver vi veta vard partitionen heter och hur man ska skriva i Terminalen -

Just got a Firewire/IDE enclosure. Put in a 60 gig drive. Since I want to use this drive on both OS X and Windows (2k), I formatted it as Fat 32 (which both OSes know about and can mount). Problem one was that I couldn´t create a Fat 32 partition that big, so I split it up to two 30 gig partitions.
Now, I formatted these partitions in windows. The wierd thing is that both Windows and OS X ignore the labels (so it seemed). During the course of figuring this out, I ended up (at one point) with both of the partitions on my FireWire drive having the same name. This was OK on Windows, but on OS X. It would mount the first partition, but not the second. It couldn´t even properly determine the filesystem type of the second (although I could mount it via the Terminal, Finder wasn´t automounting it). Plugged the drive into Windows, changed the partition name (no reformat necessary), and voila, it worked again in OS X.
Very obscure and wierd, but it might happen to you (and it´s probably a bug, because I could mount it via the shell).
