Merry Xmas!
I'm building my first system in a long time:
Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD3H rev 1.1.
Bios F18 CPU: Intel Core i7 306A9H
SATA problems: can't see my HD nor my SSD.
Only the DVD SATA on port 2(although Win 7 won't install from it, it says "insert bootable media").
I can boot from an USB tough, except it doesn't see my HD (In the MDT deployment wizard I have on that USB to install a custom Win 7 image).
But the BIOS doesn't see my WD HD on SATA 0 nor does it see my ADATA SSD on SATA 1. ( ADATA XPG SX900 256 GB SATA III 6 GB/sec SandForce 2.5 Inch SSD ASX900S3-256GM-C)
I have SATA mode set to AHCI in Bios.(Tried IDE/RAID but those didn't either, nor did resetting the BIOS).
The SATA ports are enabled and hot swap disabled (tried with it enabled as well)...
I was thinking about flashing the BIOS to the newest (20, beta)....Also logged a ticket with Gigabyte tech support.
But maybe I'm doing something stupid with cables ?
I did change cables and SATA ports btw.
I could see two similar problems:

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD4H Intel Z77 Motherboard Review - PCSTATS.com
(About the above, I tried taking the Video card out and it didn't help).
I also took the battery out (for more then half an hour), restored optimized defaults in BIOS to no avail either...
Any ideas please?
