![]() Then, unplug the power cord of your PVR and disconnect the SATA cable from your hard drive. Your PVR will say something about the device having been disconnected - this is ok. I would give it 5 minutes - if you don't see any additional space at that point, do the following. This will downgrade to standard SATA speeds (as opposed to SATAII) - though this should fix stuttering problems, not the recognition itself by the PVR.įinally, I'd like to add that sometimes after formatting, the PVR will just sit there - not giving any feedback that the formatting has completed AND not giving you the extra space. If that does not work, verify that your WD1001FALS hard disk has a jumper covering pins 5 & 6. The PVR should acknowledge it and ask you if you want to format it. If it says the drive is malfunctioning, unplug the eSATA cable from the drive, wait 5 seconds, and plug it back in. Once fully booted, with your enclosure already powered up and your harddrive spinning at full speed, plug in the eSATA cable. Then, plug in your 8300HD and let it boot up. Power up the hard drive (again, not connected). My suggestion to you - connect the eSATA cable at the back of your 8300HD, but *not* at the back of your hard drive enclosure just yet. I have the same drive working with a NST360SU-BK enclosure and it works perfectly. My personal experience is that the 8300HD is *very* picky when connecting the drive, but once it acknowledges the drive, it will work flawlessly. ![]()
