Not sure how the jumpers are set (usually next to the ribbon cable opposite the power cable). You can try Master on one and Slave on the other or you can use Cable Select (the one on end of cable will be Master and the other will be Slave). IIRC, been a while since I used the cable select option.
Try plugging one into the ribbon cable at a time. If both work separately then you know the drives are good. They may have been disconnected because one wasn't working.
You may also have the ribbon cable on one plugged in upside down (unlikely but possible with some drives), check to see if either one of the drives light is on constantly.
