gilesn Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I have a Clevo D900K notebook with a SATA-I controller (circa 2006) and latest available BIOS. I upgraded the old PATA drives to 2 new SATA P64s intending to boost performance plus take advantage of the h/w RAID. However they are not recognized at all in the BIOS. I read in other forums that because the P64 is newer SATA-II people had to force the recognition by using jumper settings on their HDDs, but is this possible with the P64? I was assuming when I bought these that SATA-II was backward compatible. Thanks in advance for any help! Giles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted October 14, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted October 14, 2009 I would suggest to install these on a regular desktop to see if they get detected. Let me know the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilesn Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Thanks for your reply but after googling around it looks like the motherboard is too old to recognise SATA-II. I'm returning them to the seller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted October 15, 2009 Corsair Employees Share Posted October 15, 2009 Sorry you are unable to run our SSD drives. You probably would want to install them on a Sata II board so you can get the full performance. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
