Ok how do you make the eSata work on external hard drive.
Have plugged the drive in (which was working okon USB) but nothing happens
Mobo is abit IN9
 
The drive in question is the Seagate free agent. Have tried hardware scan to no avail.
"Have you enabled the SATA controller which drives the external port in the BIOS"
Have looked over and over the bios and can't find anything to do with this.
Also tried just restarting pc. Still nothing
Am running xp and Vista same on both
 
Yes its all enabled.
Have just tried plugging the drive into one of my spare sata ports on the mobo (also tried the ports my other drives are on to see if I can see it in bios) and still it does not work. I guess the drives sata port is not working. All ok on USB though.
