The Marvell ports on Z77 FTW are not seen in the BIOS. Ports displayed in the BIOS are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 (Intel ports). The Marvell ports 6, 7 show activated during the brief boot sequence, but after that they cannot be seen in the BIOS, in Device Manager, or in Windows Explorer.
I have the latest 1.12 BIOS (10-8-2012) installed. All drivers on the EVGA CD are installed. Hard disks plugged into the Intel ports work fine, but when these same hard disks are plugged into the Marvell ports nothing shows up.
In the BIOS, the Marvell ports are ‘Enabled’.
I have tried using different SATA cables and different combinations of SATA power. Nothing worked so far. (The same cables work fine in the Intel ports).
Is there something else that is required to get these Marvel ports running? Please help!
Thank you in advance for your replies!
