Hey guys. I just got a 60gb Mushkin Advanced Chronos SSD and i have a 500gb WD and a 1TB Seagate in my pc. If I add the SSD the pc doesnt see it even in AHCI, if the 2nd HDD is also plugged in. BUT it will work with 2 hdd's if I plug the SSD into a certain (only one ) sata power connector. This is twilight zone pc stuff- what the hell is going on? PLEASE HELP

switch all the sata connections around and see if thet works? maby you should install windows onto ssd (withought the other 2 hdds plugged in) then reconnect the hdds after the install has completed?
