New and Old HDD not detected in BiOS

so just yesterday my computer stopped detecting my secondary drive, I tested all the SATA ports and they all work with my SSD boot drive, tested all the cables as well. They all work, so I assumed that my HDD was dead, so I bought a brand new one and it's still not detecting other drives other than the boot drive. I tried flashing the bios and nothing, I checked the configuration and the SATA is enabled, I updated the sata controller driver, and nothing.... I'm at a lose, I think my MOBO might be busted. Any advice would be appreciated

Specs:
Mobo: ASUS M5A99FX R2.0 PRO
CPU: AMD 8350FX
GPU: Asus GTX 1070
RAM: 16gb Corsair Vengence DDR3
Boot Drive: Samsung 250g SSD
"Old HDD" 3tb WD Red
New HDD 4tb Seagate Baracuda

Also like to add I tried resetting the CMOS as well

no, its not detected anywhere, but I decided to replace the New HDD with another new HDD and put it in an external enclosure, and it's able to detect that there's a USB storage device but it can't be interacted with. here's a screenshot to show what I'm talking about

and under the devices event log, it says device not migrated;

Device USBSTOR\Disk&Ven_ST4000DM&Prod_004-2CV104&Rev_0701\DB9876543211A9A&0 was not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match.

UNINSTALL the chipset driver then reboot. Windows will download the latest driver. Check if the drives are being detected in the BIOS. Also check if the drives are turned off at boot and enable them. If nothing works, press load optimized defaults. Do you have another computer on which you can check the drives?
