Hey I just got an external USB hard drive. It's a SATA hard drive and when I plug it in windows reads it as a cdrom drive for whatever reason. So I can't format it, or access it. The only thing i can think of is that it's not formatted or doesn't have a partition table. Anyone got any suggestions?

wait for the manufacturer's website to come back up and then go on there and look for software. Even though its plug in and go, they may have released something to solve this problem.
