Well, my BIOS can detect the ssd no problem, but it doesn't show my odd. It's in ahci mode. Also all the sata connectors are all on the same cable if that means anything. Sorry if I'm oblivious, but this is my first build.

Try:
- Using a different sata port on your motherboard
- Using a different sata cable
- Using a different sata power cable from your power supply

If those don't work you've probably got a problem with your optical drive. Maybe try it in a different machine, and if that doesn't work, RMA it.
