I am currently running a pull-out chassis system under Windows XP, where the XP drive is hard mounted to the system using compatibility mode, and a bunch of data drives (one for media, one for archives, one for emulators, etc) can be swapped in when I need them.
If I wanted to change over to a Windows 7 system with a SSD, I understand I would need AHCI enabled so as to take advantage of Trim.
So with this, I have a simple question ... will my data drives be rendered corrupted / inaccessible / etc by switching my BIOS to AHCI? Again, I realize I would need a fresh proper install on the OS drive, my question is ONLY as to the risks with my data (non-boot but already formatted, etc) drives.
Thanks!
