rn102 esata SSD not showing up
I'm plugging a brand new Intel M.2 540S series SSD into the external esata via an adapter card with associated ESATA connector and USB for power.
The device is unformated.
I can see the device on a PC... but did not fomat the device.
I can't see the device on the NAS.
Is this a supported device? Should i initialize in Windows or so first?
Running latest ReadyNas FW.
Thanks!

The system is RN102, not 204.
After formating the unintialized SSD in a Windows7 system, now the esata works!
It does not have a read/write performance any better than the RAID. Will look for any comments on other threads...
Thanks
