Hi
i purchased a PCIe RocketU 1144E eSATA card and the eSATA ports is not working but the USB 3.0 ports are.
I have succesfully installed the PLX driver + USB Driver + eSATA driver from here : http://www.highpoint-tech.com/USA_new/series_RocketU1144E_download.htm
So i was thinking the card is faulty and it may be, however i have a 5.25 inch ( DVD size ) to 3.5 inch hdd bay which i have slotted underneath my DVD player on my z820. this allows me to slip in a 3.5 in hdd which connects to the motherboard via sata cable. Now this HDD Bay also has a eSATA plug on the side which also has a sata cable that i have connected to the motherboard.
So 1 x HDD bay with 2 sata cables conected to the motherboard, 1 for the eSATA and 1 for the 3.5 inch slot.
Now the 3.5 inch slot works as soon as oi slip in a HDD it comes up as E drive.
However the eSATA does not .
So now i have 2 different eSATA devices one connected via PCIe and the other via a sata cable to the motherboard and both will not work.
Can someone please help me i am confused as i am thinking this is a motherboard driver or a UEFI compatibility issue ???
Any suggestions is welcome
