Well, I just bought a new SH-S138L and of course, it doesn't work.

So far, all that happens is that the drive powers up, I can get it to open and close and the motherboard even recognizes it (sort of). When I boot my PC I catch a glimpse of the drive name being registered to SATA 1. However, when I load into Windows, the drive does not appear anywhere, I've tried to add the hardware manually and nothing. I bought this drive because my old one had stopped being recognized by Windows as well. I'm starting to get the idea that Windows is having a problem, not the drives. Any ideas?
