Windows 7 Bootcamp to see data doubler SATA SSD in Optical Bay Connector
- by bumble_bee_tuna
Hi I purchased a OWC data doubler http://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/DDAMBS0GB/ ...
Long story short it lets you add a second HD to your macbook pro in place of the cd/dvd drive (which is useless anyway, impossible to get stuff out when stuck).
My current setup is 600gb intel SSD bootdrive 100gb partition for OSX / 500gb for Windows 7 Prof from Bootcamp (use 99 % of time). My desire is to have a second 300gb SSD to run disk intensive VM's off of. So I added a second 300gb intel SSD (again, NO desire to boot off of) on the sata optical port. I can see the drive no problem if I boot in to OSX, however, can't see it in disk management on Win7 ??? Any ideas similar experience ...
Funny thing is I can see it in "Device Manager Disk Drivers" but not Disk Management ???
Also no I don't want to use Fusion/Parallels this is a waste of resources for me.
