Uh... If you take out the HDD, the SSD works fine? Do you have another desktop for individual component testing? Try the HDD in it if you do. You can try to format the disk and see if it helps. Did you just install anything that might have screwed it up? This sounds kinda bizarre to me for the HDD to just stop working right after it was put into a new PC.
Yes I can unplug the from the SATA and the SSD works just fine and loads up Windows. I do not have another desktop to try the HDD on unfortunately just my laptop. When I bring up BIOS it Auto-Detects my two ODDs and my HDD but then it says their is a "4th Master Hard Drive Error." I'm sure it would say "1st Hard Drive Error" if I had it in SATA 1 like before but I tried moving it to a different SATA port in hopes that it would work. Of course it didn't. The only possibility I can think of is that the HDD is bricked. I certainly hope not but I do not know.
I cannot format the HDD because it doesn't show in Disk Manager in Windows. Although before I had formatted it and it still wasn't allowing me to copy those video files over from my USB drive.
Just to be clear this HDD error didn't start to happen until I hit the reset button while it Windows was shutting down. I had tried to copy the video files over from my USB a couple times and it didn't work and I would get that the HDD basically no longer existed. However I would restart it and it would show the HDD again. But ever since I reset it while Windows was shutting down it has been coming up as an error.
I guess I could try to hook it up to my laptop. I have a SATA to USB cable and see what happens.
