yes nobus ... have tried all the options, both of these HDs have their own power supply, first connected in the same extension as the computer, but then plugin to the dedicated main power, but still ... only sound is coming, after connecting the laptop or even desktop, no notification on the computer screen.
but sound is coming from the HDs :(

>> first connected in the same extension as the computer << you mean the sam AC outlet?
>>> but sound is coming from the HDs :( <<< can you record it?
you can also test the disk drives on a known working PC
