check the file system of all the drives that u already have then check if the external hdd's driver is istalled if any needed !

and yeah if your Mother board is supporting a 300gb hdd !! via usb

dear the thing is sometimes these drives go crazy .. what you do check if you have usb2.0 or not and also use a good AV scanner to bugg off tht pesky virus if u have any

It was a virus infection. U get 2 "Open" options in drive context menu. One is default and other is added by virus.
When u double-click on a drive, it gives message "Access is denied" but if u right-click on the drive u'll see 2 "Open" options and the second one in list will work fine. ;)
