I had the same problem. I assume the micro-SATA has to be formatted before the USB cable will work. Have not had a chance to pursue further. I have 2 micro-SATA drives in a RAID1 configuration and one failed. Don't know if I pull the working drive if it can be read or not using the cable. I think I'll try replacing the bad drive with one of the micro-SATA's and see if RAID1 can restore it. End goal is to get both new micro-SATA's working in RAID1 and use the existing as a backup via the USB cable.

I don't know. I am unsure if the adapter I had works properly. Your system sees something, but if you reformat, you will lose the info on the drive.

I don't have that problem. Can you try and restart in safe mode, and see if that makes a difference? As I recall, I did delete quite a few items that were automatically loaded at startup.That may help.

We're having a similar problem. It keeps telling us it is "Write-Protected." Tried reformatting several times under different OS's and same problem.

I've got an hp mini notebook and after plugging it in it automatically recognized it. It comes with a start up disk that may not be compatible with your version of windows? No help sorry

I put in a drive with data on it and windows wouldn't recognize it unless I formatted it first. Works fine after formatting, but I had to backup all of my data before using the drive.

I put mine in a NAS. The NAS auto-formatted it. Sounds like a bad drive. Try connecting to another system if you can. Try removing it from the case (which could defective) and re-connect.

thanx for posting this.. i have no idea why, and I just bought one.. so I'm going to check my dvd/cd drive too! Also, is your drive partitioned correctly? My D drive had more gigs than C..

not sure about the keyboard, but try disabling "numlock on startup" in your computer's BIOS

You might try a " System reset" from the menu or try reset button (Fig 14).

Sorry to be answering so late.The only thing I changed, that I remember is the boot order. I made sure it looked for the disk first. I also found that the company helped, they even responded with an email. Hope this helped.

If it is not recognized by PC it is looks like a that HDD controller is damaged.Check first id the BIOS can recognize the HDD and then try to run recovery software from boot CD.

Yes, - it has to be reformatted. It's easy - my non-tech sister just did it.
