LogiLink SATA HDD Adapter

Hi,

I have been missing something to drop some data onto, and finally bought a LogiLink USB3 to SATA HDD Adapter. It works fine when I connect a 1TB Samsung SpinPoint F1 HDD to it, and then the USB to my Mac. I can partition and format it.

However when I connect the USB to one of my ReadyNAS devices it doesn't work. The only thing I see in Volumes/USB Storage is a single line for the device, listed as a 199MB drive. What is wrong? I can format the 199MB with EXT3 and that works, but whatever happened to the rest of the HDD?

I connect it to the Mac and it all works, but not via the ReadyNAS...
