@jaclaz - Just wanted to say thanks for all that you do and that there are people that appreciate your help and all that this forum and it staff do. From now on i will be a regular here and try to help as much as i can. About my drive not spining up - It's a referb - ( Certified Rapaired ) drive, so i guess it may have a problem with weak heads or something like it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- For people with ST******NS drives that get LED: 000000CC - there is a way by shortening "read channel" ( read about it in another forum, so search for it, there is a picture ) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CA-42 cables from FocalPrice ( GT50727 ) : Blue cable with 5 wires, 3 wires soldered to PCB, cables are ( usually ) : Blue : RX ( connect TX to drive ) White : TX ( connect RX to drive ) Black : GND Few things that i've found out for better results : Try making your cable shorter, Do not use hubs/extenders, Use the USB ports on the back of your case, Recheck and solder your connectors. Stop buying any s***gate product
