Sometimes they work one way only,either master,slave or cable select. it depends on your encloser
External driver do not have jumpers. Do they?

Read his posts. he says its in an enclosure. That means it a regular hard drive, he also said he in stalled it in another computer and it worked. therefore it must be a regular hard drive in an enclosure.

I guess you are right. Please see my posting on 24. August 2008 @ 20:08 about my external drive. My impression was that this thread was about computers not finding the external drives and I am still searching for a solution.

Thank you,
