80GB hard drive not recognised in SATA enclosure
Last response: in Storage
I cloned my 80GB laptop hard drive to a 160GB using an external SATA enclosure. Everything works fine except that the 80GB drive is not recognized when I plug it in the enclosure. I tried swapping back the drives and find that the 80GB drive still can work in the laptop. Is there any way to get it working in the enclosure so I an use it as additional storage?

Thanks for the reply. I could not find option to enable AHCI in the BIOS. Anyways, this drive's partition is not recognized by any system. I tried connecting the SATA/USB enclosure on other systems incl VISTA too. Strangely it works well when I place it back into my laptop. It doesnt seem to like the enclosure and thats what is intriguing me. The larger drive works in both the laptop and enclosure...
