Hi all, For those that may be interested...
I attached a right-angled SATA cable to Wandboard and cut a small flat slot into the standard enclosure just above the serial socket - this allows the cable to exit the case. It's important to get a low profile right-angled SATA cable otherwise the case won't re-attach correctly. Then I attached a SATA to eSATA connector block to the free end of the cable and plugged it into the eSATA port on an IcyBox containing a 2Gbyte WD hard drive formatted to Ext4. It's mounted on Wandboard as usual - /mnt/disk1 -> /dev/sda1 -> Ext4 It works with no problem at all. I carry out all disc ripping and tagging on a Win7 PC (NTFS discs) and transfer the files to Wandboard HDD via network. Have found out how to force HDD into standby after a predefined time of inactivity as well. Haven't tried to let Wandboard 'sleep' yet as I don't know if it has Wake On Lan available. Anyone tried this yet?
