See if someone here can help or know the fix for this.
I have an Asus P7P55D-E Pro.
I also have a Thecus DAS...it's a bit older but it has an eSATA connection. Worked perfectly on my old Asus Core2 Duo board.
Here is the issue. It appears not to work hot-swapping it. If I reboot with the DAS device turned on, it will show in Windows (though it will not display during boot). If I already have Windows running, and turn it on, it won't show. Well a device for it shows up in device manager, but doesn't show the disk drive or show in disk management.
Not having an eSATA port hot swappable is about the dumbest thing ever if it isn't going to work.
