[QUOTE="RobNorthcott, post: 1155523, member: 57999"] Thanks, I was starting to come to the same conclusion. It's not a big deal to find another drive caddy that works on this machine, but it would be nice if it was just down to a Windows/driver/BIOS setting. One thing I haven't tried yet (purely because it's a pain to get at) is plugging the drive into one of the rear USB3 ports instead. In device manager there are two USB hub devices listed (one Intel and one ASTek or something) so I wonder if the header I'm using for the front ports is on a different controller rather than the Intel chipset, and may behave differently. I'll poke around a bit more before I give up and try another caddy. EDIT: I've put the latest Intel and ASMedia USB3 drivers on instead of the Microsoft ones - some people reckon they're more stable. Will report back later when I've had a chance to try the drive again. [/QUOTE]
