difference between upper or lower bay?

テキスト:

Hi Experts,
I have a Mac Mini Late 2012, bought from year 2013, and, sorry the story is a bit long:
1. In year 2014, I've upgraded my Mac to Fusion Drive,''' I don't recall where the Apple HDD locates (upper or lower bay) for now
''', but after the upgrade, the HDD is in upper bay, and SSD is in lower bay.
2, The fusion drive run very well until two months earlier, there's ticking noise coming out from my mac mini, and OS X keeps poping up error messages saying some system files are damaged, I've taken the mac to genius bar of Apple, and they've also confirmed that the HDD is going to down.
3, I then bought a new HDD, in order to replace the original factory-born, Apple's HDD, and then the problems came.
4, There was another very long story but in the end, today, I've confirmed that there's problem, or in-compatibility for the socket of the upper bay with my own-bought HDD.
I think there's no other person experiencing my issue, since I don't find any result alike via Google: while the HDD is installed inside the Mac mini, and performing a read/write action with huge amount of data, e.g: copying a 50+GB file. It will suddenly disappear, just like an external USB drive that've been unplugged suddenly! After the disk is disappeared, it cannot be found in anywhere, system info/storage, nor system information, nor disk utility. And it won't come back even after reboot. Just like totally been unplugged. The only way to bring it back is do a complete power shut down, and boot again.
You may doubt that the problem is from HDD itself or the cable. But:
A, when I take the HDD outside, and into a USB portable hard disk box, and plug it in as an USB external hard drive, it runs without any problem.
B, I just bought a new upper bay cable and replaced it with the original one, and the issue remain still
Any experts here, please help. Many Thanks!
=== Update (08/17/2016) ===
Hi, I just have some update information about my issue:
by checking the system kernal log, I find the following:
2016年8月17日 21:45:02 kernel[0]: Failed to issue COM RESET successfully after 3 attempts. Failing...

2016年8月17日 21:45:03 kernel[0]: jnl: disk1s2: close: journal is invalid. aborting outstanding transactions
the above is surely logged while triggering the issue while doing the copying. And they all start with this: "Failed to issue COM RESET successfully after 3 attempts. Failing...", and I find this thread talking about the message: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2058987?start=0&tstart=0 it seems the issue may caused by different SATA type between the mother-board and the hard drive.
If that's true, I think the only way for me to use my new HDD is to take it outside the Mac mini and into the external USB portable box, to be as an USB hard disk...
so..what you experts think, any idea?
-Thanks!
