[QUOTE="Sherman Homan, post: 721649, member: 22094"] There is a limit to the size of a hard drive that OS X and SATA drives can see, but that is orders of magnitude bigger than yours, so that isn't it... I think you have diagnosed the problem: you have two known good drives, neither of which work in that enclosure. Something is wrong with the sata connection on that box. I am a little confused by the cable from the sata port on the mother board... I've never tried doing that. Do I understand you correctly that you do not have a sata card? [/QUOTE]
