Could be the motherboard's SATA connection is bad or not activated in the BIOS. I assume you have tested the SATA cable and verified that the SATA power connector is working. You may need to verify in the computer's BIOS that the SATA settings are on and correct. Do you have another SATA drive that is known to work that you can test in the computer to verify the SATA connection is working? Also some motherboards have a jumper on the board to disable and enable the SATA connection on the board. Verify that if there is a jumper it is in the correct position.
