![]() Not only did the WD HDD not appear in the POST it did not appear in the OS system devices. ![]() I rescanned the system to try and find the HDD but no luck! Powered down and disconnected the Seagate HDD, connected the Western Digital HDD to my SATA 0 port and powered up. ![]() After the OS was up and running I checked the system devices and the Seagate HDD was not listed. During the OS load I could hear the Seagate HDD making "clicking" noises and the screen text reported that the drive was slow to respond, reporting an error. I booted up again and this time it saw the Seagate HDD as a IDE drive at port 0 during POST. By the way, during the POST (before I entered the BIOS) it listed the Seagate HDD as a SCSI HDD: ST3500312CS. I booted up and entered the BIOS, changed from AHCI to IDE on ports 0 thru 5, changed first boot device to USB HHD. Powered down, disconnected all of my SSD's & HDD's of my Windows 7 array an then connected the Seagate (ST3500312CS) HDD to my SATA 0 port and plugged in the power adaptor to the drive. Today I burned a bootable copy of Linux (Ubuntu) to my USB flash drive.
