Hey guys
I've just noticed this after seeing a similar thread where someone mentioned that their motherboard isnt running their HDD's as SATA drives, instead as IDE
Checked mine just incase and it appears its the same. When it boots up it says "Detecting SATA Drives"
With each drive it then says IDE instead. If I go into the BIOS and look at each of my three hard drive, they are running in UDMA-5 mode, which is IDE. My Optical drive is running as UDMA-2, again it should be SATA
They are all seagate 7200.10 hard drives, and the optical drive is a Samsung SATA drive
This motherboard cost me 160 quid, I'd like to think it's running everything properly
Any ideas if this is even a problem and I'm just reading into it wrong?
Cheers guys
P.S - Flashed to the latest BIOS and still the same
