Howdy guys and gals,
I really need some help, I'm about losing it on this weird issue that makes no sense. Ok so I bought a new Samsung 960 Pro 512gb to put in my machine. Prior to installing it my setup with two SATA HDDs and one SATA SSD worked fine. After installing the Samsung M.2 I boot my system and all appears good... but I later noticed one of my HDDs isn't detected in windows. It's not in explorer or disk manager. So I shut down to see if BIOS sees it and it does not. The drive spins though so I know it has power.
Steps taken so far:[strike][/strike]
Specs:
Asus B350+ MOBO
Ryzen 7 1700 CPU
Geforce GTX 1800 GPU
EVGA 600BQ PSU
Sandisk SSD 250Gb (boot drive before M.2 install)
Samsung 960 Pro 512Gb (newest SSD)
Seagate 1Tb HDD
WD 3Tb HDD
Corsair LPX Dominator 3000Mhz 32Gb

First I tried a spare sata cable to no avail.
I tried disconnecting a working HDD and using that SATA cable which worked, but I still needed to reconnect the second HDD
I used a brand new sata cable on the second drive and with all cables plugged in booted to BIOS. Bios doesn't see the second connected (known working) HDD with the new cable.
Tried different ports... no dice
