P8Z68 Deluxe powered eSATA not working
I bought a powered eSATA cable from Monoprice and decided to give it a try today. I plugged the SATA connector into the eSATA powered port on the back of my mobo and the other end to a HDD.
Nothing, the HDD didn't spin up. I unplugged the cable and reinserted it to make sure it's connected securely, then restarted my computer and still nothing.
I searched Asus's website and it doesn't give me information regarding the port whether it's a 5v or 12v as need to power 3.5' HDDs.
