Does a OCZ SSD Agility 3 drive work with a dv9700T? Mine is not recognized by BIOS.

‎07-26-2011 11:22 AM

I purchased an OCZ SSD Agility 3 120Gb drive to install in my dv9700T CTO laptop.  The drive is not recognized by the BIOS when installed in bay 1 or 2, but is recognized when connected via USB as a secondary drive.  The drive works properly in a different computer, so I know the drive is working.  It appears to be a problem with the SATA controller (ICH8).

 

Does anyone have any information on this?  Would love to get the drive working in my laptop.

 

Thanks.


Lloyd

If you have a HDD installed in the secondary bay and the OCZ SSD in the first bay, the dv9700t boots and works fine.
