My PC cant detect my new SATA hard drives. Can someone help me? I have connected it the right way, but it is not showing up in BIOS. It is like there is no hard drive. Does anyone know what is my problem. The hard drives are 250GB each, it has SATA interface.

Maybe your BIOS is old. Older BIOS can not detect newer SATA hard disk driver, so they are not usable with that computer. You must install new BIOS and motherboard drivers. If you did that the right way, your SATA hard drive will be immediately detected. Nevertheless, if this doesnt resolve your problem, maybe the motherboard is the main problem.
