    System cannot read SATA SSD Hard disk

    I recently built a new computer for me and the thing with this is that I installed Windows 7 on the new SATA hard disk that I just bought to upgrade the system. While the installing it this time I need to have remaining space in the system and therefore I have a 2 TB hard drive with me. Now, when I install Windows on the system I've seen that at the time of installing the system first recognized the new hard drive but after the installation, it just went out. I have noticed that Windows is not reading from hard disk at all. What could be the problem here I can say about this. I do not know what can be done here and when I try to connect the old hard disk with me that I have installed Windows XP I have seen which can be identified with the system. What can you say about it? I have really wanted to have something like this here. Can you please tell me all you can do here, so I can be out of the issue? Is there something wrong with the hard drive or is that something is wrong with the Windows 7 I am trying to install.

    As seeing your problem that you have mentioned I think both options are available here and I think you have to take care of it himself. Well to find out where is the problem I think will need to install Windows 7 on the bigger hard drive you have and see if that can work for you here in this system. I can only answer for this. Other than this if you need then you can see from the cable connector that connects the hard drive with the motherboard and check if I can help. You can attempt to connect the latest hard disk drive cable with the earlier hard and see if that can assist you. Look for the Windows system in the latest hard disk. Also check for the connections and see if the connection is loose here. To see if this was a minor issue and if not what I think it will be required for the hard disk replaced.

    Re: System cannot read SATA SSD Hard disk

    Thank you very much for such a quick reply but here it's not as simple as I said before. I have two slots to place the hard drive and I found that the system starts from the older hard drive, so it's okay, but when I try to access the hard drive I've seen recently that I cannot access it in all. I tried to set as first boot device, but I have seen that the system starts up with Windows that are in the bigger hard drive. After trying several times to now I have seen that the system has reached this time with another message. It is telling that the Windows that you have requested cannot be accessed. I am asked to reboot the system. What I can do here so you can get rid of this situation here?

    I think it will be a good suggestion if you can install the Windows on the hard drive over again and I believe will be a great method to cope. Just unplug every peripheral and after that plug the keyboard as well as mouse and after that begin formatting the hard drive. Please keep the new SATA hard disk connected there. Then try formatting the hard drive to get into the BIOS and see if you can continue with this. In my opinion I think that installing the Windows 7 that should be lost in some of the files and therefore I think it will be required to make this move again. We hope that the reinstallation of Windows 7 in the new hard disk of yours, make sure to resolve the issue.

    I am of the same opinion I think you are talking Windows 7 should not have settled here in the hard disk and therefore you will find the problem. Well, I think this is what I can suggest at this time. I suggest you disconnect the hard drive slot and then reinsert it back into the groove again. After doing that see if they can access the hard drive in the BIOS and if so, then I can continue with the installation of Windows 7 back on that and after this clean install I'm sure you will have hard drive you recognize here in a very good. Please let me know if you were able to have this in the manner I have mentioned here.

    Well, I am of the opinion that you have many tips you can have problems. I think you have to have a good look at this link and see if that can help a little, so you can get the problem solved here. Other than this, you can also visit this link Windows Vista cannot find second SATA hard drive. The condition we encompass here is fairly alike but the trouble is with Windows Vista. If all you are not getting the solution then I believe it will be a improved idea to go through replacing the SATA hard drive since it is the just the thing you can perform in the past. I hope that this post will help you in any manner.
