[SOLVED] I have installed the Lian Li Strimer v2 ?

[briblo1982]

I have two Seagate hard drives that are both 12TB. I can't get the computer to see them in the bios at all. I have tested both drives in the enclosure and they come up just fine. Should I put another cable in the power supply just for drives. Is it a good idea to run games from dual drive enclosure and combine together?

3.5" HDDs with SATA connectors? Yes, they need 12vDC from PSU.

I have put both 12tb hard drives on a separate line and they still won't show up. I put them in the external hard drive enclosure to see if they would be detected and it detected both drives thru usb external so they seemed like they are fine. Could it not be enough power going thru the system and not able to provide enough power to the 12tb hard drives?

This is my rig:
Intel 14700k
Gigabyte Aorus Z790 Elite AX Ice Motherboard
Corsair Dominator 5600mhz ddr5 32gb RAM
Asus tuf gaming geforce rtx 4080 Super
10 tb seagate hard drive (This is the hard drive that it is detected)
12 tb Seagate Hard Drive (This is the drive that it is not detected)
12 tb seagate hard drive (This is the drive that it is not detected)
Samsung 1tb m2 (For Windows)
4 Corsair 120mm Fans in the front
Corsair titan rx cooler 360
Corsair qx 140 mm Fan

Do I need to go up to a 1200w power supply?

Plug a 12TB Seagate into the SATA data and SATA power cables currently connected to the 10TB drive.

If the 12TB drive is recognised on the 10TB cables, check the SATA ports on the mobo for the 12TB drives and see if they're disabled by an M.2 drive or PCIe card.

Due to the limited number of CPU/chipset lanes on some motherboards, you have to choose between extra SATA drives, or another M.2 NVMe drive, or an auxiliary PCIe card.

TLDR. The SATA ports for your 12TB drives might not be active.

I do hope they're not ST12000NM0007 drives. Backblaze had an 11.77% failure rate with this model. I was tempted by a recent Amazon offer, but decided it wasn't worth the risk.

If you already have a Corsair Shift 1200W PSU as shown in your sig, I don't understand the question.

I'd probably use an 850W PSU with this configuration, or maybe 1000W. The recommended PSU rating for an RTX 4080 seems to be 750W or larger.

SATA hard disks typically pull 5 to 10W when active (3.5") and less power when idle, so 3 drives have negligible effect on the PSU.

I'm assuming you've plugged a SATA power cable into each 12TB drive. You can plug all three drives into the same PSU lead if it has enough connections.

Sorry I made a mistake I'm using Corsair Rm1000e Watt Power Supply. I took the plug from 10tb hard drive to 12tb still doesn't detect it but I put the 12tb into hard drive enclosure and detect it fine

I figured it out. I'm not sure if it was the BIOS update but some of the SATA ports were disabled in the BIOS somehow. Thanks everyone for the help. the 12tb model is dm not nm
