SOME TIME IT DOESN'T DETECT ANY SATA DEVICE

and if i remove HDD and start then cdrom detect well
Ditch the power supply in any case. Try another sata cable. If it still doesn't work, get it checked on another system. If it doesn't work, send the sata devices for replacement.

do you get the bios screen ?

what I feel is that the problem might be with the PSU or even the HDD. check them on another system if possible.

also make sure the motherboard is fitted to the case properly without any extra metal/standoffs between... which might short some connections in the motherboard.
