Recently purchased 2 Western Digital Ultrastar HC570 WUH722222ALE604 0F48152 22TB 7.2K RPM SATA 6Gb/s 512e Power Disable 3.5in Recertified Hard Drive from server part deals; but can't seem to get hem to work together;

Motherboard has 6 sata ports all used up; so got a PCIE expansion card; if i plug both drives they don't work and you can hear the click of death as if the hard drive has failed; but if i connect them one at a time then they work just fine. I have tried most combinations i.e removing some of my older drives and nothing, if both are connected then they just don't seem to work together but independently they are fine. Am I missing something here; what else should i be trying?

Motherboard: MSI MPG Z490 Gaming Wifi Edge

CPU: I5 10400F

RAM: GSkill 16GB
