I did install the drivers for Windows (F6 during Windows install). My thinking is that there is some problem with the controller since it does not find the drive during the POST. The Marvell BIOS comes up, but after a while it reports no drives found.

e-sata on D975XBX2 mombo

I have all of the Intel SATA ports in use, with 2 of them RAID 0. I would like to use a single external drive (NextStar 3 enclosure) using the internal connector supplied with the enclosure in the red Marvell e-sata port with no other drives on that controller. When I turn the drive on and boot the ...
