Hi, I'm taking the plunge to an SSD boot drive. I've read that for TRIM to be enabled, AHCI mode needs to be enabled in your BIOS for your SSD to function optimally. But I need some clarification: With the SSD as a boot drive and my HDD for storage, will my old Seagate work with the BIOS in AHCI mode, or do I need to somehow make the SSD drive AHCI and put the HDD on an IDE controller? If the latter, how do I do that? (To ask my question another way, will the old HDD's work in AHCI mode, I guess I could have said, or do they have to be in IDE mode? Or perhaps I need to move it off the SATA Southbridge ports or something along those lines?) Thanks!
