If the tray opens, then the unit is getting power. The opening and closing of the tray doesn't need the SATA interfaces permission; so, it shouldn't stop you opening and closing. If nothing happens it is probably not seated correctly. James

It can't be anything else but conection. Check your cabels and recheck them. You must be sure that you plug the cabels correctly/d, try the power, press open button.If works, then check another cable. Or, change the cable. Switch it with another one. Try anything that comes on your mind. It's hard to tell what is the problem just on the basis of what you said. |
