I set up my Asus P8Z77-V Deluxe motherboard last year with a 256gb SSD for the OS and a 1TB standard hard drive.

I installed a 100gb SSD to use as a Cache for the std drive.

This MB has special SATA ports for setting up an SSD as a cache for a normal drive.

Last night, I had to reinstall Windows 7 64.

I'm trying to set up the SSD/1TB drives again for caching.

But, the Asus caching utility and MS Disk Management Utility show the drive as a 56gb capacity. I've removed the partition on the SSD in Disk Management and even reformatted, but it still just shows 56gb.

Any idea why? Any suggestions on how to get it to fully recognize the 100 gigabytes?
