Greetings again all ,
Update on the extra HDD caddy ,first one didn't work due to
That this board is a Pata Ide ,and I had purchased a Sata to Sata ,but reordered
Correct HDD Sata to Pata/Ide connectors on the laptop mobo.
Also made a bootable flash drive for win 7 install .
Using a 4 gig flash stick to copy win 7 ultimate for no cd needed installs .
So far so good loading drivers now .
The asus x59sr is the hardest laptop to find oem or used parts .
Regards
