Hi all

I have the following product:

https://www.lazada.sg/products/orico-1106ss-cd-rom-space-hdd-mobile-rack-internal-35-inch-hdd-convertor-enclosureblack-i280504961-s439554899.html?spm=a2o42.searchlist.list.4.4d574f64M5kg7U&search=1

I was working some weeks ago, but today when I tried using, the power light comes on, but it doesn't read / detect the HDD. I did a fresh install of Win10 a week ago, and am not sure if that had caused this as the device was used only occasionally.

I've tried swapping to a different HDD, plugging and unplugging the SATA port.. doesn't work. Can't remember if a driver was required, but I don't think so as it's just plug and play SATA, right? Any suggestions? Or shall I buy a new one?

Update: Disregard, as I've found the issue. Hotplug for the SATA port was not enabled in BIOS. Mods please delete if appropriate, thanks
