Using MHDD Ver. 4.5 on a Dell Laptop which has a 160 GB WD S-SATA drive.

It does not detect the drive at all though. It only picks up the CD /DVD drive onboard.

And the drive is working fine ?
Maybe you need Sata Drivers on your boot disk ... or are you running MHDD on windows ?

Ver. 4.5 is better. It will allow you to use the script engine with ATA console.
