I guess I could go buy another dock/USB-SATA device and try again or maybe the device is not the issue? I talked with the microcenter rep for a while and he said that he has used this specific Nexstar to hook up many types of drives (for what that's worth). I am not sure what the next steps should be now. Both the Seagate and Samsung drives work with the new Nexstar and both of the 2TB and new 1TB Western Digitals will not show up in Windows. To keep it short, I am having the exact same issues. The only idea that I can gather, and it was just a "faint" random forum post (and I don't think this makes sense, but I can't convince myself either way) is that the Western Digitals think that they are "Master" drives and will not respond to puny slave requests to allow them to be read or written to.ĮDIT: Over the weekend I returned the Kingwin dock along with the 4TB Western Digital and bought a Nexstar Model CB-SATAU3-6 and a 1TB Western Digital Black HDD. I have tried multiple times to get them to show up and made sure they were seated correctly. Both the Samsung and Seagate work show up and I have used them both to transfer data. My issue is that neither of the Western Digital drives will show up when in the dock. ![]() The other drives that I had prior are a 128GB Samsung SSD, a 500GB Seagate Laptop HDD, and another 3TB Western Digital Green HDD. ![]() At the same time I bought a brand new Western Digital WD NAS Red 4TB HDD. I recently bought a Kingwin EZ-Dock Model EZD-2535U3 so that I could use some HDDs and SSDs I had laying around for back ups.
