Hello,
I recently purchased an OCZ Vertex 2 50Gb SSD. Love it! However, after reading some various articles I keep reading about AHCI and making sure this was used during install. When I installed Windows 7 64bit I just followed the prompts and it installed (very fast I might add). My question is do I need to setup the AHCI? My system config is;
ASUS P5KPL-CM Motherboard with an e8400 cpu. When I go into the bios and look at the drive settings and other areas in the bios etc I see NOTHING about AHCI. Does every motherboard even support this or am I missing something? I just want to be sure I have it setup to get the most performance out of it that I should be getting. I mean its blazing fast compared to the SATA drive I had in there (it boots from POST to desktop in ~22 seconds! wow!)
Anyhow, anyhelp or advice appreciated!
Thanks,
