Alright. A while back I installed a GTX780 into my computer. Worked fine for a while but then my computer randomly started shutting itself down. Thinking it was the PSU crapping out, I replaced it. Now, ever since I have replaced this PSU, I have no longer been able to get my second internal HDD to work (it doesn't show up in disc management or the bios). My operating system (Windows 7 64bit) is on the main SSD which does work without any issues. I know the second HDD works because I put it into a spare computer and it worked fine. I also tried putting a completely different HDD (brand new) into my computer, just in case, and that one did not work either.
Since this problem has started, I have also replaced the motherboard itself. Same issue even with the new motherboard. I've also tried different sata and data cables.
The only thing I haven't tried yet was swapping in a different power supply because I do not have another one on hand, but could the new PSU really be the issue? The computer itself works fine, as far as I can tell since I haven't tried to play any games or anything, but I just cannot get that second HDD to work. The external HDD I plugged into the USB worked fine, and I was able to pull some stuff off my SSD, but this second internal HDD has just got me stumped.
Current set up;
GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-Gaming 5
i5 4670k
Adata s510 120gb
WD BLACK SERIES WD1003FZEX 1TB (new HDD i want to use)
Corsair 850hx PSU
gtx780 GPU
