Just to follow up with this, I got another new SATA card (just in case) and
had another chance to take down the server in question and try to fix this.
I did some testing with the other card and other slots and it was definitely
the motherboard PCI slot that had problems.
A different card in the same slot failed, moving to a different slot with
the either card worked immediately. It's now shows up as I would have
expected. Whew!

Anyway, thanks everyone for your help.
