Ok, I have a shuttle with sata HD. I accidentally unplugged the machine whilst it was doing a heavy job on the HD. Following that the bios would not see the drive or any other sata drive plugged in.

If I plug in a IDE drive that works.

I could use the machine with IDE but I'm interested to know what might have been fried by the power break. Is it something I could fix ?

Thanks

Can you check the sata drive in another computer ? if it still doesn't show up then the drive has died rma a new one if under warranty

I don't have another sata machine nearby. I have tried other sata drives in it but none are picked up. The ide one is though.

If no other sata drives show up and you tried a different sata cable then the conclusion would be the sata controller on the motherboard has failed.
