Title:

Compatibility of micro SATA (usata, msata) adapter?

Text:

I have a micro SATA SSD with an adapter to normal SATA. I pulled this from one of my other MAC's wanting to speed up my mini but once installed it's invisible....

Anybody got a clue why?

-Stock 80gb drive works

-SSD not seen by disc installation setup

-SSD not seen by OSX when booted from USB drive

-SSD IS seen when put in a SATA docking station connected through USB

-SSD model: MMBRE64GTDXP-MVBD1

-uSATA adapter model: http://eu.startech.com/Cables/Drive/Micro-SATA/Micro-SATA-to-SATA-Adapter-Cable-with-Power~MCSATAADAP

Thanks for any suggestions!!

Device:

Mac Mini Model A1176
