Are you sure you're connect it properly?

You sort of slide the front onto the two pegs at the front of the Ultrabay and then push down at the back and it'll be docked properly.

Mine works fine, even though I only have the 65w PSU.

In the BIOS is a setting HDD diagnostic program.
In there is a test for the Ultrabay drive. Try that.
