Hello there

I just bought a new HD a 4TB Western Digital.

I put it into the pc and went to disk management but nothing.

So I swapped the lead from a working HD to the new HD and still nothing.

I just checked and it doesn't seem that the BIOS is able to see the drive either.

Searched the forums quickly but did not find anything.

Whenever Ive done this before I have never had this problem.

MB is a ASUS Maximus IV Hero.

Really appreciate any help. Thanks

Huh that would suck, then again it seems that's what the problem is. Thanks
