I have a SATA 1 as my third disk for my ASUS A8N-E board with a 500 watt Aspire power supply and it does not appear in BIOS. All four SATA ports are enabled. It is plugged into the SATA 3 connection on the board. My other drives are SATA 1 & SATA 2. Switched the data and power cables from a working disk, so the problem does not appear to be with cabling. Checked & rechecked for secure cable connections. The drive does not even spin up.

Any help is much appreciated!
