ANY device, whether it has drivers or not, should show up in device manager if they are not showing up in device manager at all, then the PC it self cannot SEE the device.

Step 5: If the drive is not showing up in Device Manager, then we have a problem. Step 4: Open Device Manager (devmgmt.msc in run) and open the "Disk Drives" tab, do you see the drives that you should be seeing? Step 3: When you open "My Computer" or what have you, the second drive should show up just like any other drive would, and I'm assuming this is where you are not seeing it. Step 2: Boot the PC, does it boot without a hitch? Step 1: Make sure that your BIOS is setup to boot from your original HDD, the one currently connected through your default SATA connection. With the "ass-out-of-you-and-me" steps behind us, time for some fun. I'm also going to assume that you have tested this drive thoroughly to make sure that it should not have any problems recognizing the drive, no matter the connection type. First, I would assume that the SATA connector inside of the caddy itself is the exact same (if not similar) connector shipped with the PC, which means that they are essentially plug-n-play. I'm going to assume a few things as I have not had hands-on experience with one of these caddys. First of all, I am laughing heartily at this contraption, as I never knew they existed, talk about AWESOME!
