Hi All,
I built this machine a while back, probably nearly a year ago. When I first set it up I remember managing to get my SSD to work on the SATA3 ports but then for some reason I ended up resetting the BIOS to it's defaults and now I can't get the BIOS to see the SSD at all when it is plugged into either of the SATA3 ports. The SSD works fine in the SATA2 ports (though clearly at a good deal less than it's optimum speed) so I haven't a clue what is up with it.
I am using a SATA3 rated SATA cable, I have SATA set in AHCI mode (though I have tried the other modes out of desperation with no success)
BIOS revision is up to date (version 1301)
SSD has been updated to firmware DXT09B0Q which I believe is the current version.
Just in case it is important the RAM is 2x4GB of Corsair 1600MHz in slots 2 and 4 (as specified by the mobo manual) and I am running Win 8 x64
Really would appreciate any help on this one. I have always managed to work these things out myself in the past but this has me completely stumped
