Been there too.
I've had more than one SATA cable go haywire.
We live and learn.

Thanks again for all the potentially useful replies.
I found an older SATA drive with a 1.5Gb/3Gb jumper -- that wouldn't
work either.
And then, guess what? I replaced the SATA cable, and now it all works
perfectly.
Try not to think of it as time wasted, more as a lesson (re-)learnt.
In my defence, the cable must have been border-line: it was working
very recently (i.e. this morning).
cheers
