Hi StephenB,
I received the Sata/IDE to USB 2.0 Adapter and connected the Sata HDD (Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 ST3000DM001) via USB 2.0. Windows 7 Pro 64-bit SP1 didn't recognize it one bit. Tested both drives -- negative. Should I wait for the Sata to eSata cable and connect the HDD directly to my eSata port? Based on you experience, will this work? Sorry for being impatient. I've had the ReadyNAS for a week now and the drives and I couldn't do anything until I update the drives' firmware. At leas now it's down to the Sata-to-eSata cable. Getting antsy. :-)
