Hi guys, need a special type of help here!
I have a rather big 250gb sata drive plugged into my wii u at the moment that has ran everything as it should no probs but the adapter is a friends and he needs it back.
So.... I bought an adapter from ebay to replace it and wanting to move everything onto a 500gb laptop sata. Unfortunately when i plug both into the wii u..... Nothing.
I connected the drive to my friends adapter and was able to format ok but when I go back to my newly purchased adapter..... Nothing. It works on my pc no probs so my question is..... Is the wii u just being a dick to certain adapters? Do i need anything special in an adapter for the wii u to detect it? Its driving me mad!
I believe both adapters are generic however my friends one has a few other input ports such as IDE on it. Thanks for any assistance offered!
