Right but that Voids warranty and if your PC doesnt support SATA cabls you have to go out and buy a Cable that Converts from IDE(?) to SATA. by the time you do that you will have spent the money for the XSATA / XPORT and voided warranty.

lol, i know. I was just letting him know that if his PC wasn't SATA compatible he might not want to go that route. But if it is SATA Compatible and he doesnt Need the Warranty (and I dont think any body really needs the Warrenty for it, LOL) That would Definately be Cheaper.

Make sure that you have the HDD plugged in all the way (I push down on the front pretty hard)

ALSO: If Xplorer 360 stops working (when you try to connect to the harddrive, it just sits there) then you just gotta turn the computer off, then back on (I don't know if hitting restart will fix it or not)

lol...it's kinda sad people couldn't figure this out. But oh well, you can't always know what to do all the time!
