Hey guys,

I'm having some issues with my computer and I'm kind of stumped! I currently have 2 SSDs, one samsung 500GB and a crucial 500GB. I do a lot of gaming and streaming so I have a lot of games installed and I find myself running out of space. So I decided to purchase a 4TB Western Digital HDD off amazon to store some games on. I hooked up the HDD turned my PC on and it didn't show up! I even went into disk management and it's not there either. It doesn't seem like the drive is spinning either. So I figured maybe it's a dud and I tried a spare laptop HDD I had laying around to see if that worked and I got the same result, wasn't even spinning! I thought maybe it was my power supply so I used a power supply tester but everything looked fine. So I'm wondering if maybe it's my motherboard? Everything else worked fine so it seems a little weird. Any advice would be great, thanks everyone!

I'll list my build below:

GeForce 1080ti
Intel i5 8600k
16GB Ram
Corsair RM850x 850 Watt 80 Plus Gold ATX Modular Power Supply
Corsair Hydro H100i Pro 240mm RGB Water Cooling Kit (With 2 Corsair HD120 RGB fans)
Thermaltake Floe Riing RGB 240 TT Premium 240mm RGB Water Cooling Kit (With 2 Thermaltake RGB fans)
5 PC fans (2 Corsair HD120 & 3 Thermaltake included with case)
Thermaltake View 71 RGB ATX Full-Tower Computer Case
ASUS PRIME Z370-P LGA 1151 ATX Intel Motherboard
