We ran into an issue where a new SSD drive wasn't recognized and
solved it by using Kubuntu's partition manager to partition the
drive. We had already used Ubuntu's partition manager and the GParted
Live CD. Neither threw an error, but Ubuntu wouldn't recognize the
drive. For reasons unknown, the Kubuntu partitioner was able to do
what the others weren't. It behaved no differently from the others,
but unlike them, it somehow made it so that Ubuntu recognized the
drive and was able to be installed. It might be worth a try.
