Tried 2,both DOA?

I ended up buying two of the hard drives and could not get either to work. I tried installing it in my computer and it would not appear in my bios (msi e34 motherboard) or in disk management/my computer (Windows 10). I swapped out the sata cable and the power cable with a hard drive I have already working in my computer and still nothing. I then plugged the old hard drive back in and it works fine. I then tried putting it into my brother's computer who has a different motherboard than I do(not sure the brand, but it is different). Again it was the same issues, it would not appear in the bios or in disk management. I tried switching from achi to ide to raid modes and it still would not work under any of those settings. I can not for the life of me figure out what is wrong with them. I've built my own computer from the ground up, I have 2 other hard drives and a dvd drive I put in myself, all working in my computer without any problems. They were all plug and play - but not this drive. This drive refuses to work. They both even appear to spin on start up, but they simply refuse to work. I will buy a new drive elsewhere, and a different brand. Hopefully everyone has better luck, but i wouldnt risk it.Read full review
