Studio 1537 and eSATA interface

I am having problems getting the eSATA interface on my Laptop working on an external Tsunami enclosure with eSATA interface. First off, the BIOS options indicate "eSATA [none]". Not sure if this is normal.

Do the procedure in the tutorial first, then install the Intel driver.

1) Follow the procedure explained in the tutorial

If the system is booting and running correctly then start step 2.

2) Install the driver package  from the intel site

Let me know if you have any questions.

You are welcome, glad it worked for you.

Hot Swapping is the best way to run external HDDs.
