Trying to install a backup drive in my PC but not having any luck. First drive I ordered in from Newegg didn't work and kept locking up my PC, second one is running but my PC won't recognize it. Am I missing something in the equation? All I thought I had to do was simply plug in the power cable, the SATA cable, and away it would go. Or do I have to change some settings in BIOS? Perhaps there's another sata plugin on the board I'm supposed to be connecting to?
The unit I'm trying to install is a Western Digital Blue WD10EZEX 1TB 7200
Thanks
