eSata in Vista
Hi, I am running Vista Home Premium. I had been running 2 Western Digital 500GB drives in RAID 0 mode. The external enclosure was a Fantom enclosure. The controller was going bad, so I bought a Xtrastor 3.5 x2 HDD enclosure which supports RAID 1. Anyhow, when I hook it up via USB, it only detects an 8GB drive. Once I got it to detect it as a 75GB drive. If I hook it up as an eSATA, Vista does not see it at all...... It should detect close to 500GB since the other 500GB is for the RAID 1. I have a PB5 motherboard. I have tried a lot of things via the cables and re-booting and such, no luck. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!!! John

As per your other group post a raid array created by one controller is
unlikely to be compatible with a different controller Please dont multi post, it confuses the issue "Mtek" wrote in message ... Hi, I am running Vista Home Premium.
