New FV 32GB works, but constant blinking light - normal?

Hi there,

I have just received a brand new Flash Voyager 32GB USB 3.0 through the post.

On my previous Flash Voyagers (32GB, USB 2.0 models) the LED light only flashed when data was being transferred.

When I plug the new one in to my MacBook Pro, though, the blue light flashes constantly whether or not I am transferring data. In all other respects it seems fine - I backed up 28 GB to it with no problem.

This is only a problem on the Mac - if I plug it into a PC, it behaves normally with the LED blinking only when data is being transferred.

I just want to know whether this constant flashing light on the new USB 3.0 plugged into a Mac is normal, and whether I need to have it replaced?

Cheers,

James
