I have 2 external firewire hard drive enclosures. There is 1 hard
drive in each enclosure. When 1 enclosure is connected to my desktop
1394 firewire port, the hard drive is recognized without any problems.
When I connect, for example, enclosure 1 to my desktop 1394 firewire
port and then connect enclosure 2 to enclosure 1, XP SP2 only
recognizes files on the hard drive in enclosure 1. The same holds true
when I try to daisy chain the 2 enclosures connected to my laptop.
This is my first experience with firewire. I thought one of the
features of firewire is devices could be daisy chained. How are the
devices recognized when daisy chained? Are there cabling issues?
Are there settings in XP SP2 to get XP to see files on the hard drive
in both enclosures when daisy chained?
Any help would be appreciated.
TIA
