I own a Lian Li Mesh Cool 2 and my PC ran on a NZXT H510. I wanted to replace it since the Lian Li offers superior cooling. My system used a Kraken water cooler, which was tricky to swap properly. After completing the change, both hard drives stopped showing up in Windows or the BIOS. I experimented with different SATA power cables, ports on the motherboard, and even a new power supply, but nothing resolved the issue. I’m certain the drives were fine before the swap, and everything functioned perfectly previously. The RGB lighting is also behaving oddly—fans are connected to the same ports as before, but only partially activating. I’m unsure what’s causing this and can’t find any solutions online. Thanks for your help!

PC specs: Intel Core i9 10900k, Nvidia RTX 3060Ti, Gigabyte Z490 Aorus Pro AX, 32GB RAM, Windows 11 (latest update), BIOS updated to address the problem.
