Hardware List
USB HUB --> i-rocks IR-4300M USB Hub Mac - Retail
500GB MyBook WD
200GB Maxtor One Touch II
Airport Express Base Station
MBP2
Problem
I have my AEBSn hooked up to a USB Hub which is connected to 2 external hard drives and 1 printer. The printer works fine, the 200gb maxtor works fine, but the 500gb WD MyBook Pro I cannot get to work and I don't know why, or rather, how to fix it or why this is happening. See screen shot:

Notice how the 200gb has a name/user underneath it? Is that the reason I cannot get the mybook to work, and if so how do I make it do that for the mybook? The hard drive itself works just fine via USB or firewire hooked directly to my laptop, and is about half filled.
I tried the journal mode thing:

And it wasn't in journal mode, so I put it in journal mode still didn't work. I took it out of journal mode again, still didnt work. Hooked it up by itself, still does same thing. Changing the password and restarting doesn't work. I don't want to format the hard drive cause it's full of music and movies and work docs that I can't lose. (well the work docs are mostly backed up elsewhere or in hard copy, but ya). And I don't really want to buy another hard drive just to use to transfer stuff over to it.
Both hard drives I have are configured almost identically by name (not in that picture, but they are now), file system, ect, except for the size. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong? WTF?
Thanks,
