Hey Andooo,
 
As @CoolaxGaming suggested, check your BIOS settings and put that HDD as the primary boot option. If that does not help, try different SATA ports. Did you plug it in the same SATA port as the last time? What brand and model is the drive?
If that doe not help, try the drive on a different computer and if it works, run a disk check tool to make sure everything is fine with it.
