dock or USB adapter. Some USB-IDE interface chips cannot work when the PC has no IDE drives inside.
Hi,
Just bought an ALL in 1 HDD docking station for Sata/IDE drives. I want get information from a laptop's 2.5' Ide drive. When I connect it, device manager shows it a half of minute, but can't populate volume. Tried it with 2.5' IDE drives, same story. Again I connected a Sata drive which works fine as well as cardreader, usb etc. Finally, connected two 3.5' IDE drives one after another, but the problem remains. I'm using Windows 7 (32 and 64 bits), however tried it on Windows XP pro SP3 with no success again. Any minds?
