I install my second hdd from my old computer to my new computer as a second hdd because it was a 2 tb hhd which I use it as store. But after I turn my new computer on, bios didn't detected the already formatted drive and Disk management doesn't show anything. I didn't copy the stuff on there because it would take about a week and a half to get off there and some of files is too large fit on dvds. It even has new sata cables.
Bios and Windows 7 not detecting formatted hhd

Hi,
Have you tried to connect it alone without primary disk?
Have you tried different sata port?
Best regards

Hi
Are ALL SATA ports in New PC enabled
(BIOS options)
check for drive first in BIOS
If not detected you can not proceed.
Try different SATA port & or controller
Once found by BIOS
second check is in device manager
If not detected you can not proceed to Disk Management
Does old PC still work ?
If so check drive still working in Old PC
