Did you experience below kind of error anytime with SATA disk,
after waiting you get
and at last
And you know how simple answer is for this.
Yes only thing is knowing is the key.
The answer lies in power source connector; SATA disks are very sensitive to power source, so if you see such errors coming while bootup and your SATA disk is not getting detected then press the power connector, And your are saved. This is my experience after struggling for an hour with changing SATA disk and changing SMPS, changing target board, but nothing worked; finally press hold on power connector to SATA disk and done. bbuuuurrr..
