I don't claim to know anything about computers but just wanted to share this
information........It may or may not help. I have one sata connection and
the external hd is never recognized unless I have the external connected at
the time of start-up or reboot. If I connect the external after start up
then I have to go in to the add hardware function and manually find the
external hd.
Don't know if this would be your situation or not.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Computer can't see 1TB USB drive
From: Robert Lendrim <[log in to unmask]>

I have a 1 TB sata drive formatted with Acronis as a single logical NTFS
partition. I formatted it via USB using a Vista Thinkpad T60. The drive
works fine on the Vista T60. When I connect it to an IBM ThinkCenter XP
desktop, it is not seen. The little bell sounds indicating it is
connected,
but no notice on screen, and not seen by Explorer, Disk Management, or
Acronis. The desktop bios is latest Jan 2008. The desktop has a
larger internal 1.5 TB D: drive which works fine.
Can anybody help me get this workng, or tell me why it won't work? Thank
you
very much.
