Hi everyone. I have a Gigabyte P35-DS4 (rev 2.1) motherboard with a eSATA bracket which I have installed on the PC back panel. It looks like this....
Now I just bought a acomdata PureDrive 500GB external hard drive, which has both USB and eSATA hook ups on the back, like this....
My problem is that the eSATA cable I have does not have the same size plugs on both ends....
As you can see from the pictures both the external eSATA bracket and the acomdata drive take the wide ends of the connector. My cable has a wide connector on one end and a shorter connector on the other. I'm just wondering if I have the wrong cable, and if so which cable do I need to get?
Thanks.
