trying to use an old Seagate backup usb 3.0 board with another ssd to use in a rasp pi 

 

trouble is windows reads the drive as the enclosure's name... probably baked on the pcb chip, 

windows will see it when i connect the pcb to the usb cable, plug into pc. then plug drive into pcb.. 

but in the enclosed state the drive will show up as unknown with the usb plugged in last at either end,

 

just wondering if there is a program or something to force change the boards characteristics or, just buy a ssd to usb 3.0 adapter

 

just thought id make good use of a perfectly good enclosure.
