When booted from the system installation disk and you bring up Disk Utilities, is it seen on the left hand side? Tell me about the drive please, new or used and what model. Thanks

The steps you have taken should have worked. First I would install the old hard drive and see if it is seen. If so then your set up is good. I would return the drive and get another one. To be sure you get the right one look for a standard 3.5" SATA drive. Install the drive and then format it using disk utilities and then install a system.

See if you can feel if the hard drive is getting power. If not consider replacing the hard drive power cable. If it is getting power, try replacing the data cable, Apple part # 922-6989. If this fails, consider putting a hard drive in an optical bay hard drive adapter and placing your optical drive in an external enclosure.
