Hey Robbie,

Did one of these bad boys the other day for the first time and was a major pain when compared with doing a BenQ/Samsung or even Liteon drive in my opinion!

It took me a few hours to get it to work.  I used a slightly older version of JF (release v0.1.66, latest is v0.1.70 I think) and also used a different SATA cable (which i think was the main culprit).
As soon as I changed the cable JF picked the drive up fine using the portio32 drivers.  
I assume you've got the drive into Mode B ok first too (have to double tap eject to get the drive to eject/close ?
