Bought this enclosure:http://pccyber.com/?v=Product&i=RACK-TAOTEC-ELEGANT-BLK

Along with a WD 3200AAKS

Put the HD in the tray, and connected the sata cable aswell as the usb cable and closed the enclosure.

Plugged it in via usb and fromatted it with PartitionMagic

Then i installed the sata riser and plugged it in the "sata 2" port on the motherbaord - sata 1 was taken by my internal HD.
as seen on this picture - look at bottom left hand side: http://i15.tinypic.com/8fnn41u.jpg
the one highlighted with orange is the ony i connected the riser to and the green highlited one is the one that my internal HD is connected to.
Plugged it via eSata and it didnt recognize it all.
Did i plug it in the wrong place?

Need some help; thnx
