Help! My Kingston SSD is not showing up! I think it's dead.

So, it all started this evening when I turned my PC on. It came up "Configuring Update" and I thought it was just another day at the office. It wasn't until the computer rebooted that the drive was not reading. Every time the computer posted, it just came up "Please insert boot media" or something like that.

 

Help!

 

Drive model: Kingston SSDNow V300 240GB

Are all the cables plugged in all the way on both ends, and in the PSU?

Yes, the cables are plugged in both ways. The 2TB drive on top of the SSD is functioning perfectly fine, I could hear it whirring away under close inspection.
