RThanks for the reply. Camera not working at moment. It is the Easymill 3 CNC. It is behaving similar to Ollies query. red lights on the only board that is working, which incidentally does work in the other two slots on the board.

sounds like cd20/30

ps. make sure you turn the power off before removing or connecting the drives.
