I'm getting a laptop that comes with a eSATA port. So I'm thinking of using that port for an external HDD. Please recommend me a SATA to eSATA/USB cable or Casing. I have bad two experience with 2.5" HDD casings. Both drives worked perfectly while they were inside my PC but failed after putting them into cheapo China casings, even though I never used them much. btw, will I really ...

Hey, I am looking for an eSata external hard drive that is at least 500GB or greater. It will be staying on my desk for the most part so I don't mind it being powered from a separate power source. It will mostly be used for my video editing and Photoshop. Price wise, I don't mind paying for a product that is worth the money. So if any of you have some recommendations for a eStata external ...

Sorry if this has been covered before... I searched for m6400 and esata and wasn't able to find what I was looking for. I used to use my eSATA port every day with a few different devices. I started to have an overheating problem, so Dell replaced the motherboard and graphics card yesterday. Of course, that means I lost all my BIOS settings. I'm pretty sure I have them back to where they ...

I have an HP dv7-3085dx, 500GB internal SATA, 6GB RAM, upgraded from Win7 Home Premium 64-bit to Win7 Ultimate, with a Western Digital 1GB MyBook attached to the eSATA port. All the latest Windows Updates are installed as of yesterday (11/23). I've noticed two problems related to this laptop running with the My Book attached, and wonder if others have similar issues and/or solutions:...

eSata Port/external drive I just bought a Toshiba laptop (running Windows 7) that has an eSata port. Anybody have any experience recording audio to an external drive via an eSata port? I'm hearing the throughput speed would be pretty good but I'm curious to know of any firsthand stories. ...

Hey geeks! I recently found out that my external I bought a while ago came with not only a USB, but a Firewire and eSATA cord as well. I'm using a LaCie D2 Quadra 500GB external at the moment. I've been using Firewire lately but just today tried to use the eSATA and got no response. When plugged in via USB or Firewire, my computer ...

Hello all, a friend of mine gave me his Dual 2.0 GHz G5 tower recently. This is the late 2005 model with PCIe slots. I have known he was giving me this for a while, so about 12 months ago I bought an ATTO UL5D PCIe SCSI card, which I promptly installed once I received the computer. I only use the SCSI card for connecting external SCSI drives for back ups. I found out soon after I started ...

I recently hooked up an E-Sata drive to my DVR. I seem to be losing connectivity to the drive which I can only get back by unplugging/powering down everything. This is going to cause unreliable recordings. Is there a workaround to prevent the disconnect from occurring?

As the title really. At the moment I have a 250GB external USB drive, but as I'm archiving all of my music at the moment in lossless format this isn't going to be enough, so I want to buy a 1TB external HDD. Does anyone have one that they can recommend? It'll literally be used for archival purposes so doesn't need to be lightning quick. I have read that a lot of them go to power saving ...

Is anyone else having problems with their R3E eSATA cables for Red drives? I got mine a couple weeks ago and it has never worked. I have tried it on several drives and with several different power supplies and a few different esata cards and machines. I talked to the guys at Cool Camera Gear and they said Red has changed something on the drives to fix the SATA_TRANS_FAULT and that is ...

I have bought the 1TB DVR expander for my Tivo series 3: (Western Digital My DVR Expander 1 TB eSATA Desktop External Hard Drive WDG1S10000VN) When I transfer programs from my computer using the Tivo desktop software the TV screen flickers. This started to happen when I added the DVR expander. When I am not transferring data and watch TV everything is good. I did not buy the SATA cable ...
