WD External Drive

[olinyer]

Hi,

I hope you are doing great.

What would be the best way to communicate this drive with PC3000.

This drive has a embedded USB connection to the drive and it does not have a SATA connection or any other, but, it has a connection of 12 pins in one side and 2 in other.

Connected through USB gives IO errors.

Attached picture of connections.

Thank you for the help.

Best regards,

Discussed in lengthy detail on the Acelabs forum...

You can replace the PCB to sata or use WDC Marvell USB/COM

have you replaced the HSA already ?

No, I have not replaced HSA.

AceLabs recommended me to connect a SATA connector as the drive is USB 3.0
