    The one I am using displays (Intel C600 Series Chipset SATA AHCI Controller) Version: 3.0.0.2003

    I have 2 SSD's not in RAID and 2 HDD's in RAID-1 and I am still having that issue where SSD's are showing as SCSI
    and also the HDD's are shown as (Intel Raid 1 Volume SCSI Disk Device)

    I am not sure when this issue will be solved, I want my SSD's to show as AHCI as set in BIOS but I guess
    thats too much to ask for?!?

    What difference does it make how they show up as long as they perform correctly?
