    Talking Got it working!!

    Well, blow me over. I found a "spare" connector and plugged it into the drive. Must've been the power thingy I needed. At which my computer begins spewing out my backed-up data. It politely asks me what I want to do -- and I opt for "Open Folder to View Files." And that was that.

    The drive is now showing itself in "System--Hardware Devices."

    Phoo. I'm good.
