I'm in the process of building a computer and I really don't know what I'm doing. I have however managed to get it together, but when I turn on the computer and run the BIOS I don't think it's recognizing my hard drives. My mobo is an nForce 780i SLI and the HDs are 500gb seagate barracuda SATA whatever all that means lol. So anyways when I go into the Standard CMOS Features in the BIOS, under the date and time I only see the following:
IDE Channel 0 Master [None]
IDE Channel 0 Slave [None]
then Drive A and Halt On but no SATA Channels like the instructions that came with the mobo shows. I have the HDs hooked up correctly to the best of my knowledge. I used the sata cables that came with the mobo and put them into the SATA 1 and SATA 2 spots on the mobo as shown in the directions. For power I just plugged the connectors from the PSU that fit the HDs.
Am I missing anything? I've never done this before so I'm totally clueless as to what to do next.
