Just finished building my computer and everything seems to be running fine and is detected by the motherboard except the HDD. I've tried changing the SATA power connector through all available options running from the PSU and nothing helps. The same SATA power connectors provide power to my optical drive which works fine. I've also switched the SATA6 cable to all possible SATA6 and SATA3 positions on the motherboard.
I'm running an Asus P8Z77-V LK and Seagate Barracuda 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM.
Is there anything I can do through the BIOS to determine if the drive is definitely DOA?
