Hey guys
Recently i purchased an SSD. I am planing on installing it NOT as a boot drive. Ill be using this SSD as a separate drive to play a few games on. I was reading my motherboard manual on configuring SATA Hard drives and it says, "To create RAID, set PCH SATA Control Mode under the Integrated Peripherals menu to RAID(XHD). If you do not want to create RAID, set this item to IDE or AHCI.
Well im not going to be using a RAID array so i know that i need to use IDE or AHCI. Which one should i use? Is there a difference? Again, I wont be using this drive as a boot drive, just as an extra hard drive to store games.
The motherboard is a Gigabyte z68x-ud3-b3
The SSD is a Crucial M4 CT064M4SSD2 2.5" 64GB SATA III MLC Internal Solid State Drive (SSD)
Many Thanks
