My drives are not being recognized.

My drives are not being recognized. I have tried making sure the drives are plugged in, I have tried using a different connector, I have tried everything. The drives use the PATA Drive interface and also has support for SATA. Not even my dvd drive is being recognized. I have also tried going into the BIOS to make sure the drives are enabled. Everything seemed fine despite this matter. Ideas?

"Hi, @proelectronics ,

Try the paperclip test to test all the voltages being produced by the PSU.

You could also try disconnecting the power to all the drives except the primary drive and check if the desktop boots OK. It may be that a drive is faulty and dragging down the voltage"
