I have a https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/H81MA/ mobo and am trying to connect my http://www.crucial.com/usa/en/ssd/ct240m500ssd1 to it.
It does not show up in UEFI BIOS at all. I have tried:
Enabling all SATA ports in BIOS
Resetting to default BIOS (just in case)
connecting the sata to all 4 ports(in case one is bad)
Nothing is working, I have no way of knowing if this is a faulty drive or not. Also, I do not have anything else to connect to a SATA port to make sure the ports work.
I am a bit stuck because my OS cannot be installed until the SSD shows up.
PS. This is my second build, but my first time dealing with the new UEFI BIOS.
