IDE HDD Problems

[CleanBobbyOne]

Edit: Fixed its self, ran updates on ubuntu

 

 

I am going to give you a strange scenario of my current set up. I am using a laptop with Esata ports. My hard drive is a 3.5 IDE(at 13 years in june), connect by IDE to USB 2.0. I tried to install windows on the IDE drive and it said "cant install on USB busses or 1394 connector, so I had a thought, why not go from sata Esata. I dont know if it will work or not, I dont have current access to sata to esata cables but I can soon enough.

 

Also I was trying Ubuntu Trusty (14.0.4.2) and installed Wine and project 64 and skype etc, I restarted the hard drive(same as the one up there) and a few things happed, I went into grub(not normal) and there was a message that popped up that said my drive cache was full.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks for all your help, have a nice day.

wait.... so what do you want? haha, sorry I did not understand it? 

 

You want to install windows on your IDE HDD? Or.... you are wondering why your drive cache is full?!

Sorry I think 2 times faster than I can express it, so I start confusing myself and others. I found a fix for my problems. Thanks for your time looking
