Digitech Docking Station Sata Hdd Drivers

I have a USB 2.0 IDE/SATA cable/interface, (HW-338?), which gets detected by my Win XP (SP3) system, but is declared as an unknown device. Therefore, an IDE or SATA drive plugged into it are not seen. (The drives do run up ok, via the separate power supply). No driver cd was supplied with the device, and the vendor insists that I don't need a driver for Windows XP. (The black plastic device has 2.5' and 3.5' drive interface connectors back-to-back, a SATA connector near one end of the body, and a sparkly silver USB cable coming out of the other end. Can anyone advise me, or point me in the direction of a solution?Please?

The port multiplier feature is not standard on many SATA hard drive controllers. This docking station allows the hard drive to enforce its own power state, as opposed to enforcing a power state that keeps the hard drive active at all times.

I have a similar device, USB2SATAIDE from startech.com and I see it under disk management, but it states 'Disk 1; Unknown; Not Initialized' When you try to Initialize it states 'Device not ready'. I've rebooted with the hard drive attached and it won't work, get the same issue. Have the Startech drivers, tried to use any one of those and Win 7 pro just comes back with 'Disk Drive' as the type of device and the current drivers, still doesn't work. Device Manager sees it as a USB Device under Disk Drives. I've tried different hard drives, and different computers, all state the same issue. I'm guessing all the different hard drives I've tried are not bad drives. I was able to load Windows onto one when it was the main hard drive, but will not run as a USB attached device.

I have 7 external drives. All worked on Win7. When I ‘upgraded’ to Win10, the 4 drives connected by SATA/USB adapters, are not recognized. The USB ports all work fine. The drives are not all ‘dead’, all at once. The Disk Mgmt allots a space and assigns a drive letter, but does not read the drive, reporting ‘no media’, as if it is a card reader.
