SATA mode IS AHCI and it cannot and does not need to be changed. Are you installing a solid state drive? A lot of the instructions you see on the internet applied several years ago but are no longer necessary on recent model computers. Windows 10 and a computer with native SATA ports is ready for an SSD with very little adjustment needed.
