there should be a setting that usually is default labeled "IDE" which should be changed to ACHI, but before doing so, there is a registry edit you will have to do to avoid having to reinstall windows again probably to set it to ACHI.

is that drive formatted? if not

right click My computer>Manage>disc management


also try using the western digital advanced formatting tool if its still not working.
