 Try to reconnect everything exactly as it was before the new SSD.

If your secondary HD still doesn't appear then I'd try a different SATA cable and/or different motherboard port

Yeah this worked but I would really like to figure out why my drat SSD won't get detected. It shows in bios. My computer also won't recognize USB drives anymore. Time for a new motherboard or just windows install?

I'd make sure you're on the latest BIOS: https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/support/P67AC43

If that doesn't help with the new SSD then I'd try an upgrade to W10.
