Hello everyone
I am using a Samsung SSD 830 Series disk (latest firmware) which is connected to the first SATA II port on my computer (Fujitsu Celsius M460). The ports two to four are each connected to a 1TB SATA disks which are configured as a RAID 5 device using fake-raid. (Intel ICH9R)
Samsung Magician (running latest version 4.0) says: AHCI mode is deactivated and required for highest SSD performance. Checking the BIOS settings it seems to be enabled, also the option is grayed out (due to the fact that RAID is enabled)
Also the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\msahci\Start is set to "0".
So what can I do to fully leverage the SSD performance? Can fake-RAID and AHCI mode be used at the same time?
Thanks for your replies.
