Question HDD not detected after new psu

[fallenbox]

Hi people and ty in advice, basically lately i started having issues with my old bad psu thermaltake smart se, so i replaced it with a cx550m and it all seemed to go well at first, the pc was booting up and all but i kept being redirected to the bios and i got the opportunity to see that it was because my 2 hdd were not detected, i tryied chaning sata slots checking cables and things like these but my hard drives still wont get detected in the bios, i even update the bios with no luck, i even have the suspect that the hard drives are not spinning at all since i cannot sense anything holding them in my hands. Are they damaged from my old psu ? do i really have to think i have to spend more money now after the psu, or is it a mobo or software issues ? Resetting CMOS did not help.

Reseat all power and drive data cables. Sometimes cables can 'feel' like they went in but they are only halfway in.

i just remembered that i forgot to change my sata cable from my old psu and used them on my new psu and now searching the internet i found out this cause hdd to get broken. i'm gonna suicide

SATA cables don't come with PSUs. Even if they did, using an 'old' SATA cable won't kill a HDD. Can you provide pictures of the old and new cables?

Sata powered cables does come with PSU, you are referring to sata connectors for the mobo which you'r right

Don't kill yourself just yet. There may be a zero cost, DIY solution.

I'm currently unable to post any phot because amazon approved my refund so just f*** everything i'll just get new hdd back, now i'm trying to figure out if everything else on the pc is allright, i'm sure i made the mistake only with the sata cables but now i'm checking for gpu too even if i don't remember using the old cables for it a least

Edit, gpu fans and led are working and monitor does receive the signal so it should be everything fine aside from hard drives, ty all anyway

Edit: i'm a bit worried about my data on that hdd tho, i tryied checking what you asked me and seems like i can't take a picture of that you asked me for since it would require a totally disassembly of the device causing the warranty invalidation.
