1. I have set in storage to ssd for all ssds and still not detect my 2 adata sp900 ssd.

2. I have restarted several times and still the same.

Any ideals and how to fix this?]]> Sun, 23 Aug 2015 03:40:48 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=687&PID=3170&title=x99-extreme4-3-1-do-not-detect-my-2-5-sp900-ssd#3170 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=687&PID=3165&title=x99-extreme4-3-1-do-not-detect-my-2-5-sp900-ssd#3165 Author: parsec

First I installed the mainboard including 4 Ssd(2 adata 2.5" sp900 256gb, 1 sp920 2.5" 512gb and s511 128gb) and 3 X 3.5" hdd connected with my mainboard.

Basically, I am using sp920 ssd as window 7 64 bit OS running in legacy only and Ahci mode and it(2 X sp900 256gb) would not be seen on window disk management, I thought that it may be the window are not install the sata driver properly.

After a few times restarting, the two ssd are not detect and disappear on bios, so I change to another sata slot, sata cable, sata power cable and it still disappear. On the other hand, I also change to Ahci mode to ide, legacy mode to uefi mode, it still the same.

The two ssd that I have already exchanged by Rma. I also transfered to another mainboard asrock p55 connected to sata with ahci mode, it could detect and run properly and it also work on external hdd docking and detect on this mainboard in my Window 7 x64 platform.

Do you have any ideal for that?
Do you have any suggestion/solution for these issues?
Is that the mainboard sata or s_sata port issue?
