I've tried hooking it up to my two IDE-to-USB

most HD's I've plugged into it). However, I don't see any sign of
partitions.
I've got a couple of those drives and my PC's don't seem to have a
problem with it. Make sure you're using a 40 conductor IDE cable,
and not an 80 conductor one. Setting the transfer mode to PIO (Mode
0) might also help.
Assuming the drive spins up, it should at least respond to an
IDENTIFY command.
