Hi.

I recently changed my HHD to SSD and wonder how to change EDI mode to AHCI?

Tried to do it thtough BIOS, but there is no option where I can change it.

I have the latest version of BIOS F.34IDE.jpg

Hi:

 

It is not possible to change the drive controller setting in the BIOS.

 

AHCI mode is enabled. 

 

It is just that on AMD platforms they do not label the controller as an AHCI controller, and you should ignore any SSD programs like the Samsung magician software that report AHCI is not enabled.

 

If you run the defragment and optimize drives utility, you will see that there is full Trim support for your SSD as it is currently configured.

 

If you download the AMD SATA controller driver file, you will see references to AHCI in the setup information file.
