I have external drive docks for coping and moving data on drives. My older dual Orico will handle up to 2TB drives but for larger drives I had to get a newer one. I have some little USB-SATA dongles, one I use with a little PI server, but these seem to have the older drive limit. All is dependent in the controller chip used. -- Take care, Jonathan ------------------- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2) |
