Hi Folks,
Being that my H340 drive slots are all full, I'd like to extend the storage capacity by adding another box of disks. I purchased the Mediasonic HF2-SU3S2 which has 4 bays and can use either usb3 or esata interfaces. I tried using esata but the results were flaky as the drives were sometimes recognized but at other times were not.
Seeing that USB3 performs better than esata (and hoping that it would be more stable) I purchased the ASUS U3S6 pcie x4 card. I was hoping that I could just plug the card in, load the driver then plug in the drives but no such luck. Unfortunately, no matter what I do, I can't get the card to show up in the device manager. Does anybody have any ideas on what could be going wrong?
Thanks
