macos - Mountain Lion's Migration Assistant not seeing USB hard drive

I just replaced a hard drive in a MacBook Pro for a bigger one. I connected the previous one using a SATA/USB adaptor and I was able to mount it and see the files in it. Both the old and the new hard drive have FileVault enabled.


When I try to transfer the data using Migration Assistant it stays looking and it never shows the old hard drive as an option. I selected to restore from a back up or other drive.


Any ideas what might be going on or how to get more information?
