Not really caring how long it takes to show up...lol...I'd just like it to work! Have any ideas I haven't tried? Also the Velociraptor is my OS drive. The other drives are secondaries (One for video/One for audio) on the ASMEDIA controller.
So to summarize, here's what I've tried. Posting this from the Overclock forums cause I'm asking there as well:
1. Every "type" of labeling for the SSD disk under Windows Storage management
2. 4 Different Intel Rapid Storage Drivers (version wise including now newest from intel)
3. SATA-III Intel port and SATA-II Intel port
4. Resizing the main hard drive partition to force a re-write of partition table
5. Raid mode enable in bios
I know with Rapid Start, for example, it needs to be GPT, and set id=84. Can anyone tell me if there's certain settings for the SSD to enable for Smart Response? I'm gonna give it another day or two here and another forum...if I don't get an answer I'm going to honestly abandon the project. I've heard reinstalling Windows non-UEFI may do the trick, but I am not reformatting my PC, it works fine otherwise. I'm honestly ok with the speed of my 1TB Velociraptor, I just thought more could not hurt, but I am not redoing my PC over it.
