x58a-ud7 rev1 corsair reactor 120 problem

[engmod]

I am having trouble with bios detection of my corsair R120 SSD "sometimes".
At the present, a bios reset is the best way that I have found to get it back.
The ssd is not the boot device.
I have been watching the beta bios's for any change for the Jmicron 612 controller but I can't see any.
A search did not reveal any other issues with the corsair R120/Jmicron 612 controller.

Cheers
Derek

F8c won't apply to my rev 1 board?

Wazza,

That makes 2 different F8c's that I have now.
This one worked, so running it now.
Will let you know.

Nice to hear things are working better for you now!

Why do you have the SSD on the J.Micron ports anyway? An Intel port would be much faster.

Re: x58a-ud7 rev1 corsair reactor 120 problem

The Reactor series from Corsair has a Jmicron 612 controller.

The SSD IS running on an ICH10r port.

That doesn't mean anything.

It would be best and fastest for you to run the drive on the ICH10R controller for sure!

Re: x58a-ud7 rev1 corsair reactor 120 problem

The SSD has always been run on the ICH10r ports.

Ohh, sorry man!

I mis-read all that I guess, my bad :(

Re: x58a-ud7 rev1 corsair reactor 120 problem

Tried the F8d bios, the reactor disappeared, back to the F8c bios.

Re: x58a-ud7 rev1 corsair reactor 120 problem

Is that the new one? Stasio updated all those latest Beta's with new replacements just this morning I think.

There was some issues so they have been corrected, if you try again be sure to re-download the BIOS just to be sure you get the new one.

Re: x58a-ud7 rev1 corsair reactor 120 problem

Yes, its the latest one.
Its not being nice for me though.
