My hard drive isn't being detected by my MSI Z170a GAMING M7, I have tried switching the sata ports, tried CMOS resetting, reinstalled windows 10 when possible, but the hard drive refuses to be detected!

Hi there phoondos,

Is this your OS drive? The drive is not being detected by BIOS right?
If this is not your OS drive, you can go to Disk Management and see if it is recognized over there.

Apart from that, you can use different power and SATA cables as well.
