(Get the code!)
I have an ASUS motherboard and there is the SATA configuration in the BIOS. I have changed the SATA controller mode to RAID mode (there is IDE and SATA mode). I have done this, and it worked, even with one drive. The BIOS does not give many details about this...
[ 0.942521] ahci 0000:00:11.0: AHCI 0001.0100 32 slots 6 ports 3 Gbps 0x3f impl RAID mode
I get a few lines in dmesg, seems that the AHCI controller is now in action.
I did this because I was fed up last night, the computer started to halt every 2 minutes, literally.
After I set this to RAID, it stopped. Let's see if that works.
I am confused now, isn't RAID supposed to work with only 2 drives?
