    You've posted the wrong screenshot. Please obtain the devices page.

    Also, you should right click and save the screenshot instead of posting the screenshot of your PC desktop.

    Thanks.
    Can you hear the HDD spinning at boot up?

    Do you have access to a serial cable and PC with serial port?

    You are not answering the questions.

    When connected internally, can you hear the HDD spin up when you switch the receiver on?

    Why not? Have you reseated the cables? Checked the drive works elsewhere? You're really not helping anyone trying to help you here with such brief & non detailed answers.

    One of your pictures shows it connected.

    You started this thread a long time ago. If there is a fault with your receiver, it would be a good idea to confirm the fault and get it repaired while still under guarantee. Questions were asked to help you.

    If the HDD fine when in the USB caddy and connected to receiver, there is likely a fault with your receiver? Best you contact the retailer.

    With the Mutant's unique and none standard method of connecting the Hard Drive, if you do not fit the Hard Drive correctly in the mounting caddy you can get a bad connection
    I found that the best way was to loosely fasten the Drive to the caddy so that it can be adjusted, and finally fastened tightly when it is properly mounted and plugged in to its mount that is soldered to the motherboard I hope that this makes sense
    one other point, I can imagine someone with a heavy hand breaking the soldered mount that connects it to the motherboard

    Sorry to come in here late in the day, but I got a mut@nt box today and have a 2.5 hard drive. It's a WD 1600BEVS Scorpio. Is it just me or does this drive not fit *smh*
