SATA Drive to USB

[ServiceInteract]

Hello

I need something that can connect a SATA drive to USB externally so I can backup data to my desktop. I bought a BlacX dock but the problem is, that I have to reformat my drive each time I use it with Vista.

I was wondering if there was something that I can use that can allow it to run without reformat and is plug and play.

Your help is seriously appreciated! Thank you in advance.

You shouldn't have to reformat every time you connect a drive to the BlacX...something's wrong there.

Unless the drive is new and uninitialized, then yes, you'll have to format. But if it's a disk drive that's already formatted and partition, you should be able to see it straight off the bat once you connect the drive to your dock.
