I bought a bare drive (2TB WD) and installed it in a USB connected (wall powered) Acomdata enclosure. The microHD will not display the USB green LED. The microHD will note, on the TV screen, that the drive has been removed when you unplug the USB.
My computers (Win 7 and Chromebook) will read and write to the enclosure/drive just fine. I can and did do a NTFS format with windows 7 (took 18 hours!). Swiss Army Knife shows a USB connected with a sub USB and will not format it, shows read error. Swiss Army Knife will show all of the drive information - just can't read the sub USB.
I believe the problem is with the the Acomdata box. Can anyone tell me of an enclosure/drive bay that will adapt a bare drive to the microHD?
