eSATA
If you are using the eSATA interface to connect the hard drive
enclosure to your computer, there are two setup processes you can
follow. If the hard drive enclosure is powered on upon booting up
the computer, it will automatically detect the drive. Otherwise, if you
connect and power on the hard drive enclosure once the computer has
already been booted up, you will need to open the Device Manager
to scan for it. The following directions outline the necessary steps to
access your hard drive when the computer has already been booted
up:
Right click My Computer and click Manage.1.
In the left pane, select Device Manager.2.
In the Device Manager window, click the + next to the Disk Drives 3.
icon. Since your drive was not powered on during the boot up
process, it should not yet be visible.
Turn on the hard drive enclosure. Once the power indicator is 4.
illuminated, click the Scan button.
The Device Manager will begin the installation of the necessary 5.
driver software. Once it has completed the scan, your drive should
be visible below the Disk Drives heading.
