The BIOS does not detect or recognize the ATA SATA hard drive

If you cannot determine whether the drive is spinning: , Boot the computer and listen if it is, Try to shutdown the computer, Disconnect the power cord from behind your computer, Disconnect the power cable from the hard drive, Reconnect the power cord to the back of your computer ,Power on the computer, to see if the drive sound was audible before & then repeat, but only reconnect the hard drive and listen for it sound, Switch power cables with a device like Optical drive, so that you are using a functional power cable.

First, I dont expect you need to update your BIOS. A lot of people recommend "update your BIOS" whenever the mobo has trouble working with a "large" HDD because that WAS an issue for drives over 128 GB on IDE ports a while back. It has NEVER been an issue for SATA drives.
However, I do recognize that there sometimes are odd problems that can be fixed by BIOS update. If you need or want to do that without an OS installed, your manual (per the reference above from rolli59) shows you how under Section 2.1.2 on p. 2-2. It assumes you will download the latest BIOS file and place it on a USB thumb drive. Then you use a BIOS updating utility already built into your existing BIOS, following the manuals instructions.
Your manual deals with drive configuration in Sections 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 on pp 2-7 and 2-8. It does not indicate that there is any option to Enable or Disable drives, so well assume they are all Enabled. The Main screen of BIOS Setup shows the drives: if your drives are not detected and shown on this screen, you do have a problem. If you know your drives are good but all your SATA devices are Not Detected on this screen, then Id suggest you have a bad mobo.
On the other hand, Im not clear from your post that you are looking at this screen when you say, "BIOS not detecting SATA drives". If this screen does show your SATA units properly, then the BIOS HAS detected them, and you have a different problem, probably in configuration. In Section 2.3.4 you set the SATA Enhanced Mode. IF you are using Win XP in any version, you should set this to P-ATA. But assuming youre using Win7 or Vista, set this to S-ATA to get best use of your drives.
If your CD is the ONLY device on the IDE port, its jumper MUST be set to Master, and it should be plugged into the END connector on the ribbon cable. I would assume that is how it was on the old mobo, but check it.
Are you re-using your drives from before the mobo change? I would assume you are. It sounds like you are trying to Install your OS on one of them, which is a good idea. You probably cannot simply hook up your drives and expect the new mobo to boot from that - at least, not without some work to fix driver problems.
Assuming you are trying to Install to a previously-used HDD, the Install Process may tell you it cannot find any empty drive to Install to. That is NOT because the BIOS is failing to detect. It is because the drives are all "full" - that is, their entire space is assigned to existing Partitions. To do the Install of the OS, you need either to use its tools to Delete all existing Partitions on the ONE HDD youre installing to, or at least to tell it to use one specific Partition (large enough for the job) to Install to. IF you Install to any existing Partition, be aware it will wipe that entire Partition clean and you will lose all its old data.

Tips OSX How to Save Space Hard Drive Mac

MacBook Air with SSD capable of quickly indeed very proud of its users but in some cases, the SSD is too small to store a variety of data, especially for those who choose a lot of files in bulk. For that you need to perform well SSD management, including removing all source files iMovie. If you have done it but the Mac hard drive space is still not enough to accommodate a collection of files then you need to follow these tips advanced that contains 5 steps to avoid overloading the hard drive.

1. Delete Cache Files

Even if you use a Mac desktop that has a very large space but to save hard drive space is still important to do. You can do this by deleting the cache files.

When you delete apps to make the disk space a little relieved, that still leaves the actual user application cache is not deleted also. The files were left to help the performance of OS X and various applications installed on the Mac. If you no longer use an application, you can delete the entire cache file.

How, in the Finder press Command-Shift-G or click on the Go menu, select Go To Folder. Then type:

~ / Library / Caches /

This way you will display the folder that contains the user caches. Once open, you need sorting files by size to determine the size of the files and folders you want to delete.

Open the View menu and select Show View Options or press Command-J on the keyboard. Click the checbox which is on the Calculate All Sizes and close the windows View.

The next Mac will show the number of all files in the Finder, including folders. If you are not yet set, then immediately set course windows to do with the List View or Command-2 on the keyboard.

Well, now you can see the cache file with the largest size there at the top by clicking the Size once again. Furthermore please delete all the files that you no longer need.

2. Delete Speech Voices

Another thing you can do to save hard drive space by deleting voices Mac files are used OS X for text-to-speech. This file type can be very large and need to be removed when no longer used.

Open Terminal from the Application folder, dock, or use an app like Alfred launching system. Type the following command:

cd / System / Library / Speech /

The above command will change the directory (cd) that you use speech to another directory where files are located. To delete all of them, type the following command:

Voices sudo rm-rf / *

If in doubt use the method above, you can manually delete the voice files through the folder / System / Library / Speech / Voices / then delete the voices that you do not use, such as the cello or Bahh.

3. Check the Application Support folder for Steam Game Files

For gamers who frequently use digital gaming portal Steam, you need to check the Steam files that you can delete.

Open the Finder, open the folder behavior ~ / Library / Application Support /. Inside that folder you will find a folder that Steam could be lots and lots of files from different games you no longer play. Be sure to Calculate All Sizes from the View menu when viewing the Steam folder and sorting based on Size. You will be able to see the game files are very large, delete it if you no longer use.

Other folders that you need to see is the Application Support. A number of applications use the folder to store the files that you no longer even wear. Make sure you pick and choose which files should be deleted.

4. Delete File in System Logs and QuickLook Cache

System logs is one place that contains a lot of files to help work the system OS X. However, you can just delete the files in it because the files can be made many times.

Open Terminal from the Applications folder or Dock. Type the following command:

sudo rm-rf / private / var / log / *

Command over befungsi to clean up system logs, including when you run the command above. Therefore you can often do this to increase your Mac space.

Furthermore please close the Terminal window and open another one. Type the following command:

sudo rm-rf / private / var / folders /

The above command will clean QuickLook file and you can do regularly to keep the Mac space. It should be noted that each of the above command prompts you to enter the administrator password.

5. Disable Mac SafeSleep Mode

There is an OS X feature that was released in 2005 called SafeSleep. SafeSleep is basically made a hibernation mode to save the current condition of your use Mac so that when you turn it on at a later time after sleep, the Mac will be in the same condition as when you left. Such conditions do not change even when the battery ran out and shut down.

In OS Lion, Apple then introduced two new features called Autosave and Resume that provides similar SafeSleep. Unfortunately, all of these features actually consuming hard drive space. To disable SafeSleep mode, open a terminal and type the following command:

sudo pmset hibernatemode 0

Command over deadly SafeSleep function. Afterwards you need to delete the image SafeSleep file by typing the following command:

sudo rm / var / vm / sleepimage

If you use Mac often still connected to power when in sleep mode and the battery has never been below 20% then it means you are not using a Mac SafeSleep. Thus disabling SafeSleep become mandatory for you to do.

For non-Mac equipped with SSD, it takes longer to save SafeSleep image to your hard drive. In contrast, for the Mac that uses SSD Mac, not necessary at all to do the same. Later if you want to reactivate SafeSleep, type the following command in Terminal:

sudo pmset-a hibernatemode 3

Good luck!
