Hard drive is not showing in BIOS, SSD works fine. Ive tried different SATA power cables and still nothing. Also tried switching SATA mobo port for the hard drive still nothing, Is there a driver or firmware I need? Build specs below:

if the bios is seeing the hardd drive it be under the boot menu for hard drives there be the ssd and the hard drive. with just the power plugged to the hard drive is the drive spining when you feel it?? check that the data cables on right and the sata port not snapped on the drive.

Thanks for your response. The Hard drive is not showing under BIOS or Disk management. It does not spin up at all. Double checked cables, everything seems fine. Ill power down and try another sata data cable now. But I know the power cable works since it is powering my ssd as well. Unless a single power connector on those power adapter daisy chains can be bad?
