The new one is using a mobo, GA-Z68P-DS3 (rev. 1.0); the older one is using a ms7906 board; the hard drive is a HGST He10 10TB. Bios has latest update. Have tried known working ports and cables, SATA IDE and ACHI modes.

Thanks, Im going crazy, and not that savvy technically.

Is updated, nvm its something to do with new sata standards, a stupid design decision and old PSU's.. possibly.
Wasted my entire day on this BS have now ordered a molex to sata adaptor and praying I get one that doesnt set my PC on fire.
