It has to be seen in the bios or it won't work. You said you plugged in the data cable to a SATA III port, I'm assuming you also plugged in the power cable? is the SATA III port turned on in the bios? Sometimes SATA ports can be turned off by plugging something else in, make sure that port does work.
