I'm not able to install an internal sata disk neither! i've searched the wiki, but i cannot found how. i don't have the settings option in the settings system menu ¿? can anyone help me?

The DM800 can not be uses with a eSATA disk without a separate power to the disk.
The disk will draw more power than the DM800 can deliver.

Ok, thanks, but now i plug inside DM800HD the 2'5'' sata disk and it seem it doesnt recognize the disk because i cannot see the system configuration menu Hardisk option (if i plug an usb disk i can see it as well).

thanks!
