I have all the drivers installed from the disc that came with the SATA card. Hard drive is plugged in, I can hear it spin, etc. Everything is connected, PCMCIA card slot detects my SATA controller. Problem is, I don't know how to configure the enclosure/SATA card/drive to see it under the hard disk drives category in windows. Directions don't say. One thing...this drive is not brand new-it is one of two twins that used to be a part of a RAID 0 array, and there is still half of the data on the drive from the array; it was never wiped clean. That may affect it's function, but I'm not sure. Anyone have any ideas?
 
Right click on My Computer > Manage > Disk Management. You should be able to see your external hard drive there. Right click on it and delete the partition and format it.
