The eSATA device is not recognized from Sleep or

Hibernation mode.

A connected eSATA device may not be recognized if it is connected
to the computer’s eSATA/USB combo port while the computer is in
Sleep mode or Hibernation mode. If this occurs, disconnect the
eSATA device and then reconnect the device while the computer is
turned on.
Before connecting the eSATA device to your computer and external
power source, read the documentation that came with the device and
follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

Before you contact Toshiba

Since some problems may be related to the operating system or the
program you are using, it is important to investigate other sources
of assistance first.
Try the following before you contact Toshiba:
❖Review the troubleshooting information in your operating
system documentation.
❖If the problem occurs while you are running a program, consult
the program’s documentation for troubleshooting suggestions.
Contact the software company’s technical support group for
their assistance.
❖Consult the dealer from whom you purchased your computer
and/or program. Your dealer is your best source for current
information.
