It's possible either the drive or cable is defective.

A recently fitted SATA HD isn't showing up.
I have 4 SATA slots on my Gigabyte Duo GA-8I915P Duo Pro motherboard. 2
have a matching pair of Hitachi SATA HDs in a RAID configuration.
A few months ago I fitted a Panasonic DVD RW into one of the remaining
slots. It showed up and worked faultlessly immediately.
Recently I bought a Western Digital 400GB SATA HD, fitted it into a spare
bay and hooked it up. But it's not there.
During POST (which in spite of every attempt to pause it, flashes along at
the speed of light) no trace of it seems to appear. I think the DVD RW is
there and the 2 RAID drives do appear but not the WD drive. There's no
sign of it in BIOS either even after using the auto detect option.
What do I need to do to get this new drive up and running? If this isn't
the right group does anyone know of another or maybe a forum?
TIA
