Bios not detecting SATA disk drives but detects SATA SSDs

This is driving me bonkers. I just upgraded my PSU to diagnose some brown outs I've been experiencing. I've migrated everything over but the BIOS no longer sees my SATA Disk Drives.

Diagnostic steps I've taken:
- Pulled a SATA Disk drive from another computer - Does not see it
- Pulled a SATA SSD drive from another computer - sees it.
- Put disk drives from original computer to secondary - Secondary doesn't see them.
- Put SSD back into secondary computer - Seconday sees it.
All the swapping I did into the original computer used the same cables to see if the cables were at fault. Step 2 proves cable is ok.

I have an _extremely_ hard time believing 4 hard disks just died all at the same time (1 being from an entirely different computer).

I'm running out of hair to pull out; anyone have any ideas?!

Thank you for the quick reply. My MoBo is an ASUS P9X79 LE. I'm currently seeing if there is a bios update I could get but it make no sense why it would suddenly stop working.

[strike]Not sure if I have an M2 driver installed and, to be honest, I'm not sure how to check that. But again: why would this change with just a PSU upgrade?...[/strike]

Edit: I misread the M2 drive as "driver". No, I do not have an M2 drive installed. Standard SATA SSDs and SATA Disk Drives

There's gotta be a BIOS setting or something somewhere that I am not seeing. Got a buddy bringing me a spare HDD to see if indeed 4 dives just crapped the bed together...
