Hello all just received my new SSD through the post and i am going to install it today here the SSD and Motherboard i have

YOUR BASKET
1 x ASRock Z77E-ITX Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Mini ITX Motherboard £123.98
1 x Intel 330 Series 120GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive - Retail £79.99
Total : £215.38 (includes shipping : £9.50).



Looking in my motherboard manual i have 2 options what one do i use,

using SATA/SATA2/SATA3 HDDs without NCQ function set UEFI to IDE

using SATA/SATA2/SATA3 HDDs with NCQ function set UEFI to AHCI

And is there anything else i need to know/do before installing this SSD, i am going to be doing a fresh install of windows 7
 
ahci supports ncq and that ssd should do too,just set to ahci in bios/install windows/run wei(windows experience index) n thats it,maybe install intel rst(rapid storage controller) drivers from mb website
