Why does my new hard drive not show up?

Text:

Hi. We bought a replacement hard drive for our PowerBook which is a Western Digital Scorpio WD1600BEVE mobile PATA HD 5400 to replace our toshiba mk8025GHS. We followed installation instructions, but it is not showing up when we try to install the system software.

We held down the option key when we started, but it does not show up in disk utility. Did we get the wrong hard drive?

Device:

PowerBook G4 Aluminum 15" 1.51-1.5 GHz Aluminum A1095
