Computer not detecting new SSD

[Snowy]

Hi all,
Recently swapped my PC into a new case and with that added a new SSD (1TB) to replace an old one (500gig) that I gave to a friend.

I am not detecting the new SSD in my system... not in BIOS, not in Windows, not in Linux (POP_OS).
I've swapped the SATA cables, I've swapped SATA plugs into the MOBO, I've swapped the power cable, and as far as I can tell everything is plugged in appropriately & securely.

Am I missing anything to trouble shoot?

Is it safe to assume I got unlucky and this is DOA?

Thanks
Snowy

Just a high level guess ... did you double check to verify that the drive plug in to the MB isn't shared with something else (e.g., GPU or PCI slot)? Or that it needs to be enabled in BIOS?
