I guess if your eSATA drive also has a USB interface, then try that and see if at least the drive can be seen. Although, just because a drive can be seen over USB, doesn't mean that the drive will be seen over the eSATA port ...

James,
In fact it does work under USB. Was hoping to get esata working for extra speed.
I tried rebooting with everything attached and that did not help either. Anything else to try?
