[QUOTE="mavrettt, post: 1902381, member: 410648"] Hi. After what you wrote... I restarted the computer. Plugged the harddrive in with the sata usb cable (making sure the connection was snug), waited for the light to go on on the sata cable connection to go on (hadnt noticed this the first time). Then plugged the 12v power supply into the sata connection. Heard HDD spin up. Started DISK UTILITY.... and it showed up. I pressed the Disk firstaid on the disk, and hey presto...it appeared on the desktop. Thanks, Paul [/QUOTE]
