That BIOS should detect it correctly. It's recent enough to do so.

Assuming the BIOS supports the drive, try jumper settings.

Does the Bios detect the drive or is it just the OS not detecting the drive ?
Or is the drive detected with the wrong capacity ?

As said this Bios should support HDD up to 128GB
