i built my computer at the beginning of the year and everything was fine but now my computer has stopped recognizing the hard drive. it didn't show any signs or anything, i tried the cable and i know its not that, i just wondered if there was any reason it might not be working? it seems way too early for it to have died.

So it doesn't even show up in the BIOS?  Have you tried different SATA ports, SATA cables, and power cables?  And maybe tried it in a different system?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.
