Sata Ahci Driver Windows 10
I don't have the AHCI drivers and I'm not sure how to get them. I have tried the regedit options that I have found, but msahci doesn't exist in the registry and another option I found was already at its correct value. I have booted with AHCI in the BIOS, but the device manager doesn't have anything AHCI related and Samsung Magician says it isn't working either. Under storage controllers, Microsoft Storage Spaces Controller is the only thing there. I am running Windows 10.
Is it worth the trouble of getting this to work properly and if so, does anyone know how? Possible relevant system parts: i7 6700k Asrock Z170 Extreme4 850 Pro 500 GB SSD 2 TB HDD Thanks for looking. Comments are closed.
