Master.  I'm starting to think that although it claims to be an ATA 
adaptor, it will only recognise Kingston-brand disks (it was designed to 
clone smaller disks to a bigger Kingston drive as an upgrade).

Kingston have verified the driver only works with their disks, so it's not 
beyond the realms of possibility that the adaptor will as well.  I should 
dig out the old disk and try it (if it still works).
