Hi John & Welcome to Tom's Hardware! Make sure the HDD is connected to the adapter, and the power is on and it is spinning. Then turn your computer on, check in the BIOS system startup, and make sure the BIOS sees the HDD as a hardware device. Then boot up to windows, go to the device manager, and see if it is seen either in the Drives section, or USB section below. Then right click on My computer, choose manage, and in the left lower area click on Disk Management. See if it is recognized in the lower graphical section as Disk # 2 or 3 or 4.

If there, make sure it has a letter assigned in the Volume Info column to the right. If it's still a problem, please take a screenshot of the Disk Management dialog box with everything plugged in, and post it for us here to see exactly what the problem is.

Thank you John_Van Kirk - i'll give it a shot. If you connect the Kingwin bridge PCB on its own, it will probably show up in Device Manager as a USB mass storage device. The fact that it doesn't do so when the drive is jumpered as master would suggest that the drive is not communicating with the bridge IC. Forest Canopy Density Mapping Software. A lot of bridges don't play well with IDE drives.

I downloaded the Win98 driver from the following URL: The INF file identifies the bridge IC as a JMicron JM20338. MfgName='JMicron' DeviceDesc='JM20338 SATA, USB Combo'%DeviceDesc%=JMUSB.install,USB VID_152D&PID_2338 I have an enclosure with a similar bridge (JM20337). AIUI, there is a bug (insidious data corruption) in some PCB designs, but this bug does not prevent the drive being detected. I'm not sure whether the same bug applies to the JM20338.

Hi Fzabkar, Really appreciate your knowledge and insight into HDDs and their connectivity. You had mentioned just looking at how the USB-SATA or IDE bridge ID's itself to the Device Manager in Windows. Is there any way you can tell if a bridge is configured as a 32bit or 64 bit device that would play well with larger and larger HDD's? Also is there any way to firmware upgrade a USB-IDE bridge so that it would work properly, as in John's situation? AIUI, most bridges have 32-bit microcontrollers, often based on 32-bit versions of the old 8-bit Intel 8051.
