Re: GA-EP45-UD3P/Q9550 Hangs in Bios
Oops, I decided to approach the old Q9550 system with renewed vigor - and in the meantime used the WD Black 750GB drive to store video files. Once I got the WD Black 750GB drive out of the mix all is well. I ran the system with the Intel Controller set to ACHI in the following configurations:
SATA2_0 OCZ SSD
SATA2_1 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_5 DVD Burner
SATA2_2 OCZ SSD
SATA2_3 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_4 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_5 DVD Burner
640L OCZ SSD
SATA2_3 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_4 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_5 DVD Burner
640L OCZ SSD
SATA2_2 WD Black 500GB
SATA2_3 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_4 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_5 DVD Burner
640L OCZ SSD
SATA2_1 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_2 WD Black 500GB
SATA2_4 Raptor 300GB
SATA2_5 DVD Burner
All of these configuration work like they should in ACHI Mode. So...it has to have been the WD Black 750GB drive that was causing the problem with the Intel Controller in ACHI Mode. Seems strange since it works on the newer MB's. It was formatted on a W8.1 system before being moved to the Q9550 system?? Thanks again for your usual great support. You made me get to the bottom of this and kept my old Q9550 in the game!
