Toasted Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Latest BIOS and chipset drivers? Have you tried a different SATA data cable and motherboard port? Please run ATTO and post a screenshot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employees RAM GUY Posted December 6, 2012 Corsair Employees Share Posted December 6, 2012 In order to use the Neutron drive I would suggest it be in AHCI mode if your MB controller does not support that mode I would suggest using a PCI/PCI-E S-ASTA Controller.

Krgll Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 In order to use the Neutron drive I would suggest it be in AHCI mode if your MB controller does not support that mode I would suggest using a PCI/PCI-E S-ASTA Controller. I'm stucked with two old computers with Intel 82801EB Southbridge, probably not compatible with Neutron GTX devices. It was a surprise - AHCI is recommended but is NOT a requirement. To avoid more incompatibility problem, can you be specific on compatible PCI/PCI-E S-ASTA Controller or refer to technical reviews? Thanks.
