Hey guys, I've been doing some research an HP Spectre XT Touch-smart 15-T4000 model number B5C72AV. I recently installed a Samsung SSD 850 Pro in it, but Samsung magician says AHCI is not enabled. In the bios there is not an option for changing AHCI or IDE, and I am unable to locate any information online as to whether it is able to. Here is a link to the specifications on the computers (http://www.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03572829.pdf), page 2 chapter 1 specifies about the hard drive and solid state drive. Does this make sense to anyone? Is it saying that the drive it has is only Sata 1 and can this computer even be switched over to AHCI? Thanks!

Your system should obviously support AHCI if ur manufacturer has not disabled it, it was present in the 1st gen i series systems as well.
ur is a 3rd gen pc, try searching the bios for the option, if u cant find it u should contact HP.
