P5K-E Wifi E-Sata problem.

Got an external caddie (icybox IB-360AStUS) and have had my Jmicron controller running in IDE mode and it worked fine, however I want to be able to unplug it and plug it in later without needing a reboot so I changed the Jmicron controller to AHCI mode, the drive is detected during the jmicron raid bios screen but doesn't appear in windows like it did before on the IDE mode.

In device manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers it lists 2x ATA channel 0 and 2x ATA channel 1, one of each has a yellow exclamation mark (presumable the drivers for the IDE mode?), so why isn't my drive being detected? Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks for the reply. I didnt get an option in the driver as to which mode to install, however after re-running the driver setup and rebooting its worked and has detected it.

However I cant seem to get it to hot swap? If I go in device manager and click properties on the drive, then go on "polices" I can check the "Optimize for quick removal" box, the drive is a SATA II drive and the caddie says it supports hot swap? :S

Thanks rpstewart, looks like a handy program to have. Cheers
