Hi everybody!
Here is my problem (it is kinda similiar to some of written here):
Several years ago I installed some USB loader to my 4.1 Wii, collected a lot of games to external WD 500Gb HDD and for a few years it worked flawlessly. Then, some time ago, HDD started failing to detect sometimes. I was afrait to loose everything, so copied all the wbfs files and other loader folders to my PC. And then WD died. Today I bougnt new WD 1tb USB HDD, formatted it to FAT32, copied all backuped files and folders to it (restored just as it was), connected to the right (outer) port and... it appeared undetected.
I wish I could tell what USB loader I have, but I do not know where to see it. It has rotating HDD drive on the button of main Wii screen, Blue rotating DVD and rotating HDD on the "Wii Menu / Start" screen and shows Wii joystick buttons while loading.
What problem can it be?
Thank you in advance.

UPD1. I copied some wbfs files and all additional folders to USB flash and Wii detected it and works OK. What can be wrong with HDD?
