Hi
Thanks for the advise, but it had no effect.

I have borrowed a D-Link DUB-H7 USB 2.0 USB hub and I have attached it to Bubba and the ICY box.

So I'm still thinking that is driver issue.

Look at this post
http://forum.excito.net/viewtopic.php?t=1506

I have tested it little bit more.

It works fine on both my windows laptop and stationary Ubuntu 8.10, so it is only Bubba that it does not work on :( (for some reason it is only the NTFS disk that gets auto Mounted by Ubuntu, and with my newly founded Linux skills I could find the other one: )

I ...

Hi
The disk are SATA so there is no Master/Slave :(

The most likely answer to the problem (what I think) is that it is related to the power consumption. But I do not know how to test that I do not have any measurement equipment :(

Above matrix prove that the disk works and the the 2 different ...

Hi
At last, I have now tested some with udevinfo.
I now have a matrix over the different output


Device '/sys/block/sda' has major:minor 8:0 looking at class device '/sys/block/sda': SUBSYSTEM="block" SYSFS{dev}="8:0" SYSFS{range}="16" SYSFS{removable}="0" SYSFS{size}="312581808" SYSFS{stat}=" 1 0 ...

What I find rather surprising is that according to specs the icy box is delivered with a 2A power supply, which is not enough to power two hard disks. Thats why I think it pulls extra voltage from the desktop.

I agree, it is wird. I do not have other SATA disk to try with :( and it should be a ...

Have you tried running the disks one at a time in the cabinette and examine the output of udevinfo? By the way, is the above output all you get? I'm missing some parts.

Have you tried udevmonitor (you need to be root to run it). Once started, connect the device and examine the output.

I ...

Thanks for the input! why do I not read the data sheets more carefull?

It sounds like a probably cause. But the cabinett is not powerd by Bubba and it doesn't explain why it works in windows.

I have now change the hard drives position in the box.

out put of dmesg

I will try to swap the disk later today, I post an update later.
Note: when I plugged the box in to my Ubuntu machine I only saw the other disk (ST325082)...

when running udevinfo on sda I got "couldn't get the class device"

when running sdb I got

Hi
I have bought a ICY hard disk box, Link .

It works quite good (in win XP) but little noisy.

To the problem - my Linux skills, they suck.
The cabinet contains two hard disk but I can only find one in Bubba.

Output from dmesg

I removed the link and added this code
