I have an MSI B350M Pro-VDH and have a Ryzen 3 1200. I am building this as a file server and have been trying to add a western digital 10 TB hard drive. I cannot get windows or the UEFI to read the hard drive. I have traded mutliple SATA and power cables, with no luck. I have also added other smaller hard drives and they are detected in both, UEFI and in Windows. I have also attached the hard drive in as a usb drive and it does read the drive over USB. Also my desktop has had no issues reading the drive, and I have done quite abit of various hard drive testing tools on it and the hard drive shows as 100% green and working properly.

Was hoping someone here might have some useful suggestions here, as I would rather have the drive attached inside the case then as a USB drive.
 
It sounds like the drive is not spinning up when connected the power supply.

can you feal the drive soin up when connected to the PSU?
have you made sure nothing else is connected to the power cable coming from the PSU?
what is the make and model of the power supply?
