I just found out (from IOGear Tech Support) that these drives (model
GHD135C80) are not bootable. They are refusing to do anything about
this, or to help me in any way, since "they were not advertised as
bootable." I'm moving up the chain, with the V.P. and President out
of the office today. I spoke with one supervisor who will run my
request (for some kind of exchange/upgrade) by the V.P. first thing
Monday when he gets back into town, and personally call me then.
So, we'll see what will happen then.
In the meantime, I'll offer some advice I wish I had before buying
these drives: If you need an external drive to be bootable, make sure
that you get that verified before you make the purchase!
