Hello all
I really hope someone can help me. I won't bore you with all the un-important details and get straight to buisness.
I have a StarTech SAT3540U3ER raid tower, inside i have 2 x 4tb hdd.
The issue is, the enclosure keeps powering down, i have changed the power supply but still the same issue.
So what happens is, the enclosure is on, it powersup, the hdd spin, then after a period of time the enclosure powers down but the power light is still on. the length of time the enclosure stays on is different everytime i re-start it.
the hdd seem fine because when the unit is on i can access them on my laptop, no strange noises from hdd or anything.
Another issue is the enclosure is now discontinued and i really don't want to loose the data on the hdd. so transfering the data to another enclosure/hdd will be problematic, another issue for another day.
so i am hoping someone can shed some light on this,eben if it means changing parts within the enclosue.
please help
many thanks
