Do the SATA cables need to be same length, using one that came with mobo and
one bought when purchasing second sata hard drive.

Pretty sure length is not the problem, as long as the
SATA cables are under 1 meter (think that's the limit?)
in length.

Instead, verify that you have the latest BIOS update for
your motherboard as well as making sure you have the
proper drivers for the SATA chipset.
