HALP wrote If the drive is correctly plugged in, there is no fix for it.

Ensure both ends of the power connector is plugged in if your power supply is modular.


My power supply is non modular, and i have 2 wires what look the same both for hdd

The only other things to try are; trying different cables and connectors, plugging a different drive into the cables you're trying to use and see if you can recreate the issue otherwise the drive may be faulty.

I havent got another drive, i think it could be the SATA cable because the drive makes a noise when it boots.

If you have built the system new then you should have more than one SATA data cable with the motherboard. Even without a data cable plugged in the drive should move its heads and start spinning. You'd be able to tell as when the drive starts it lurches slightly.
