Hi:

 

The BIOS in your notebook is set to AHCI by default.

 

The AHCI setting in the BIOS is called SATA Native Mode and options are Enabled or Disabled.

 

Enabled = AHCI on, Disabled = AHCI is disabled (IDE mode).

 

Your dc7700 should have two drive controller settings, IDE and RAID.

 

RAID is as good as AHCI.
