Hello folks,
I have bought an external hard drive case from Akasa Integral – which has eSATA and USB ports.
I intend to use the eSATA port. The connections and the switch setting ( set to use eSATA) have been made as per the instructions, including the hard drive 😉 which is a 750GB Samsung 5400rpm 32mb cache.
But the setup does not seem to be using the high transfer rate possible. It is sluggish and slow. It seems the port is behaving like a USB1.0 port, which i understand after going thru the web articles.
It is also understood that there are no special drivers that are required to be installed for this, the documentation too does not indicate any. the OS that is used on the machine is Vista Business, 2GHZ, Core 2 Duo, with 4GB RAM.
Please help me how to
Configure the ESATA port to function as it is supposed to and not an USB port ?
Thanks a ton in advance….
In anticipation
Cheers
