Good Day,
i need help in my problem in external hard drive (120gb SATA) this came from an old computer and works fine, but when i insertit in an external casing to become an external drive via USB2.0, it seems that it cannot be detected with the full capacity of the drive it only detects about 8GB or Less, how ever i tried installing it in another computer to test it and it detects the full capacity. what seems to be the problem? why cant i use it as an external drive? and another thing it also happens in the SD card 2GB when i insert it in my memory card reader it detects 2GB but it doesnt show any of its contents. THANKS please help me
