OK,
I have a Seagate Barracuda 4TB (ST4000DM000) that has a weird problem. If the drive is connected (to any of the 6 SATA ports, Either the 2x Sata 3, or any of the 4x Sata 2) ports, it will freeze the BIOS.
The BIOS screen comes up, the computer BEEPS once, and then freezes.
I cannot enter Bios via F9 / F12 or DEL key.
If I only have the HDD connected via power, boot into the OS, and then plug-in the SATA cable (hot swap since it is enabled and AHCI as well), the drive then shows up fine. It shows like a regular drive, not an external.
Ran SeaTools and no errors at all.
MB is a Gigabyte Z77MX-D3H TH
EDIT: Seems to be Bios Issue. Tried HDD on another PC, works fine. Any ideas?
