Well I have the same problem, I bought a Kingston HyperX SSD SATA 3. I replaced the Apple HDD (Toshiba) and the SSD isn’t recognized, even in disk utility. I also tried with a Hitachi HDD it also is not recognized, the only HDD recognized is the Apple Toshiba drive. I have a MBP mid 2012 Any idea? Thanks

Well, I changed the sata cable and it works now :)

See this similar problem. It could also be an EFI/driver problem. Have you checked the manufacturers support site/knowledge base? If this answer is acceptable please remember to return and mark it.
