1) I am testing with 1 SATA HDD on the ESATA110/1 Port location; but can't figure out what the BIOS Settings should be. ( This location ( 2 ports ) uses the Sil3132, when you do not have a RAID setup; ICH7R is used when the SATA ports in the other location are used ( 4 ports ). )
( The BIOS defaults all the RAID - related Settings.)

2) SATA HDD shows up immediately on the Post Screen ( very tricky to get it to show up on the other 4 SATA Port locations ).

Anybody know which Settings are right?
Choices below:

SATA/RAID/AHCI Mode (AHCI)
*( If AHCI, Auto is assigned for On Chip SATA
Mode )
*( If DISABLED, Options are: Auto, Enhanced,
Combined,Non-Combined )
On Chip SATA Mode (auto)
PATA IDE set to (Ch1 Master/Slave)
SATA Port 0/2 set to (Ch2 Master/Slave)
SATA Port 1/3 set to (Ch3 Master/Slave)
Onboard H/W SATA (enabled)
*( If ENABLED, options are RAID, BASE
*( If DISABLED, BASE is assigned )
H/W SATA Function (Base)
Onboard H/W GigaRAID (enabled )
*( If ENABLED, Options for GigaRAID Function are: ATA,
RAID )
*( If DISABLED, ATA is assigned. )
GigaRAID Function (ATA)

Thanks, Ravenquille
