I have a SATA Drive that I pulled out of a Windows 2003 server. I put it in
a USB drive container. When I plug it into an XP machine, I can see all of
the data. When I plug it into a Vista PC, I don't see any data. Is there
some security setting or something that I need to change?
 
Right click on My Computer and select Manage. On the following screen,
click on Disk Management. Do you 'see' the SATA drive on the right hand
side? If so, assign it a drive letter. Now you should be able to 'see' it
in Windows Explorer.

Also on the right side, did it say this was a basic or dynamic disk?

Lincoln actually got it right but was way ahead of his time when he said,
"You can have some of you computer working all of the time and all of your
computer working some of the time but..." It was he that said that, wasn't
it?
