Hi everyone
Just bought this GA-MA790FXT-UD5P from Gigabyte. It has 10sata ports:)...or has it only got 6ports?![Let It All Out](https://www.tweaktownforum.com/core/images/smilies/let_it_all_out.gif)
My problems with this mobo:
The sata ports(6 blue) from AMD work just fine but the ports for Gigabyte(4 white) does not! I have tried 10sata disks with no luck and it is always the gigbyte sata that fails. All my disks work! All the disks on AMD sata shows up in Windows but never on the port from Gigabyte. I can see that sometimes during boot, I can see one or maybe two disks but not all four on the Gigabyte ports.
Can these ports from Gigabyte be used as singel channels or as backup only? I don't use PATA disks or rom! But I want to use all my disks but can I do that on this mobo? In other words: Does this mobo support 10 SATA disks?
Mobo settings (Integrated peripherals):
Onchip IDE Channel: Disabled
Onchip SATA type: AHCI
Onchip SATA Port4/5 type: As SATA type
Onboard SATA/IDE device: Enabled
Onboard SATA/IDE Ctrl mode: AHCI
Windows fix: I did a windows register fix to get AHCI support and then I installed AMD AHCI drivers. If I didn't do this fix windows would not boot.
Gigabyte MOBO bios: F8C
Gigabyte SATA bios: 1.06.59
AMD SATA bios: 3.0.1540.59
