esata

Post by larswp »

hi
i got a intense pc last week and now i try to connect a SSD to a eSATA port, but the disk does not show up. even if i boot up with the drive attached and go into the bios it does not show in there.
i tried to connect the ssd using the same esata connecter to another computer and that worked.
what can i do?

here is some follow up info:
my bios version is: CR_2.2.0.346 X64
i have loaded defaults in the bios to make sure it was not a setting i had changed that makes the problem.
the computer is the Intense PC Pro.
i run linux on it, but since the ssd does not show up in bios i do not think that have anything to do with it.

Have you provided external power supply to your SSD? Your other PC may feature eSATAp port, while IntensePC provide eSATA port.
