P6210y Sata port

Is there any known issue with the Sata ports on this p6210y desktop system? Motherboard is an M2NZ78-LA Pegatron board
I have tried all 4 ports, changted wires, but sometimes when I boot it says theres no hard drive or CD drive...I have set the BIOS to show me this info at boot up, and all four SATA ports sometimes show None...on boot up. I tried another hard drive too.
Its out of warranty, and replacement boards seem expemsive, and a lot of the ones I saw on ebay all said the SATA ports were defective.

Sorry about the mistake. I guess I had USB on my mind.

What do the Ram timings mean and does it matter which SATA port?

hi
is it a thread or could you guys add 1. i just bought 2x p55a- gd65 mobos. im sorry i do not build pc's all the time. i buy every few years and try to get up to date tech..
my problem is. each new tech i go up say kn8 to an9 ddr to ddr2 etc. some of the wording in memory set up changes and or more setting options. im not sure what the 4 main settings are. say i have memory that is 8-8-8-24 and want to make it 9-9-9-24. im not sure exactly which settings to change.. i think 1 settings has cl in the wording- i know what cl is- im not sure of the others.. this lil bit of info added to the manual would help us simple folks a lot..
well maybe you guys could start another thread- maybe you can sticky them. or put all of this in a general new p55 build thread.. but.
i noticed in the manual for my 2 new p55a- gd65 and or on the mobo. the satas are stacked 2 in a stack which one is sata 1 and sata 2. its not clear in the manual. i want to guess sata 1 is the 1 closest to the mobo or pcb and 2 is on top.. i have not checked yet. but what about the io plate and say usb. i guess some of them are stacked and maybe a few of them. which is stack 1 or usb 1 and 2 etc. again id guess the 1 closest to the mobo is 1. but what about if it is a few different stacks. where would the count start from top of mobo or the bottom up.. lil things like this can snag us simple folks. but in less than 1/3 of a page in the manual for these issues could be explained with ease or by adding a few numbers to the photos etc. if i remember right my abit mobos always added the lil numbers what ever to the system photos or drawings. it helped to set up the system faster and helped even more us that do not build systems often.. we should not have to guess- a few simple lil numbers on the drawings would be sweet.
thank you if you guys could start a thread and answer these few things- i know it would help me a lot. i will have the rest of my 2 system builds by the end of the week.. i was just reading on the msi flash drive thingy- its seems cool. as long as my drives like it etc- i have 1x 512mb 1x 1g and 1x 2g drives. im not sure how much space it needs exactly. im not sure it said anything about that. it just said- make sure you have extra space- but not how much? i want to guess my 1 gig drive will be enough. i have to make sure i know what letter it will be called etc.. but i think i will be ok.. i more want to use memtest- i hope my bios will be up to date- or good enough to get it running- but i will check and see what is out and download it maybe burn it to disc etc.. i have a few days to get all of this together..
* mods feel free to move this post if need be. i started this post here because its memory related or part of it anyway.. im not sure it is threads for these lil things- maybe sticky s in another area. im not trying to take over the thread or anything. im new here..
thanks in advance.. see ya..

The timing explanations are all over the net. For instance, at techpowerup, there is page explaining all the timings.
http://www.techpowerup.com/printarticle.php?id=131
An excerpt from the webpage.
Quote from: http://www.techpowerup.com/printarticle.php?id=131
Introduction
Have you ever wondered what those numbers “2.5-3-3-8” or “2-2-2-5” and so on mean? Or have you seen words like “CAS” and “tRCD”? These are the timings for the memory, or the speed at which it processes certain commands. This whole settings area can be quite confusing and you have to have a certain knowledge of it, if you plan on overclocking. But some of you may just be plain curious as to what they are.
Rated Memory Timings.
* CAS (tCL) Timing: CAS stands for Column Address Strobe or Column Address Select. It controls the amount of time in cycles between sending a reading command and the time to act on it. From the beginning of the CAS to the end of the CAS is the latency. The lower the time of these in cycles, the higher the memory performance.
e.g.: 2.5-3-3-8 The bold “2.5” is the CAS timing.
* tRCD Timing: RAS to CAS Delay (Row Address Strobe/Select to Column Address Strobe/Select). Is the amount of time in cycles for issuing an active command and the read/write commands.
e.g.: 2.5-3-3-8 The bold “3” is the tRCD timing.
* tRP Timing: Row Precharge Time. This is the minimum time between active commands and the read/writes of the next bank on the memory module.
e.g.: 2.5-3-3-8 The bold “3” is the tRP timing.
* tRAS Timing: Min RAS Active Time. The amount of time between a row being activated by precharge and deactivated. A row cannot be deactivated until tRAS has completed. The lower this is, the faster the performance, but if it is set too low, it can cause data corruption by deactivating the row too soon.
tRAS = tCL + tRCD + tRP (+/- 1) so that it gives everything enought time before closing the bank.
e.g.: 2.5-3-3-8 The bold “8” is the tRAS timing.
(The 2.5-3-3-8 figure is just an example for memory timings.)
These are the four timings that you would see when memory is being rated. It is in the order of CAS-tRCD-tRP-tRAS. The lower these timings, the higher the performance of the memory. Some motherboard manufactors (DFI for example) list the timings in their bios CAS-tRCD-tRAS-tRP.
Certain memories can take tighter (lower) timings at higher speeds. These are the more expensive memory modules out of the bunch. There are also other timings to consider in your BIOS. Not all boards will have options like these.

It doesn't matter which sata port on the same controller you insert a connector. This is not like the PATA controller where master and slave can be determined by the end or middle connector.

When we move 2 hdd(Raid 0) to other sata ports, will data be safe ?

----my system----------------------------------------------
MSI K8n neo2 platium
AMD 3000+
Dual DDR ram hynix 400 (1GBx1GB)
1 Sata hdd Samsung 80GB ( windows is running on this driver)
2 Sata hdd Seagate 160GB ( raid 0 )
PSU FireLine 400w
Thanks for read my article
The time before, I don't use raid 0, I just use 1 hdd (seagate sata 160GB ), and my system run very good as a Bootrom server.
But then, when I tried 2 sata hdd seagate 160GB (raid 0), some time ( when the data's transfer is large) my server WAS HANG ( before I use raid 0, my server never was hang), I don't have any choice without press Reset button.
I'm using a good PSU ( fireline 400w 40usd) , I don't think it's a problem.
I tried new driver but it was not solve my problem.
Now i'm looking for your advices, please help me.
When i'm expecting help from other, I'm also trying alots to solve this problems.
I want to test if port sata 3 and sata 4 is good when they run in raid0, so :
I intend to plug 2 sata running raid 0 (on port sata 3 and sata4 of mainboard) to 2 port Sata 1 and sata2, but I wonder when I plug 2 hdd to new port , will I have to format them, and if not, when I start Windows from Samsung hdd (pluged on port sata 3) will Windows recognize them and see my old data . Because my data is large and importent, so I ask you before I do it.
Thanks for your support. Best Regard

yes it shouldn't be a problem as long as the SATA connectors are using the same controller i.e. nvidia controller or Promise controller. The SATA ports are irrelevant...

Can anyone enlighten me as to how I can transfer data from an extracted hard drive off of a Macbook Pro onto a new Retina model? No SATA port!!!

Hello,
I'm trying to transfer data from my old hard drive (taken out of Macbook Pro 2009) onto a new Macbook Pro Retina. My ignorance is vast and I purchased an eSATA device to do so, not thinking that there is no SATA port on this new computer. Is there a special cable or anything anyone can recommend? I'd be very grateful for some help here.

I would just get a cheap USB enclosure from OWC, put your old drive in it, and use it it transfer the data to your new rMBP. Cheap and simple. The one I spec'ed is for a USB 3.0 enclosure as you have USB 3.0 ports on your computer - much faster than USB 2.0.

Can't boot windoze from extra sata ports in MacPro?

I recently bought a 5th HD for my Mac Pro planning to mount the drive under the optical drive and take advantage of the 2 extra sata ports on the mobo. Because my Vista drive was the only one with the old style power connector ( and I have no adapter ), I thought I'd put it up there and the new drive in the sled. Long story short, the Vista HD mounts when I boot into my Mac OS(s), but it won't boot into Vista..
Is this a known limitation of bootcamp/windoze/MacPro? Will a SnowLeopard OS drive boot from that sata port or is it only going to be useful for data drives? Any other limitations of those 2 extra ports?
Sorry if this has been answered before, I couldn't seem to form a useful query..
TIA

Hi flommer,
by default Windows or better said the Apple BootCamp Drivers for Windows can not see or use the odd SATA ports.
Have a look here http://osx86.net/archive/index.php/t-3159.html for possible solutions to that.
Hope it helps

SATA Ports & flashing video cards

Hey guys,
I just got a blu-ray drive (Pioneer BDR-202BK) & purchased Toast 9 with the Blu-ray plug in & wanted to know if their is another SATA port on my G5 Powermac?
Cureently I am using 2 of the ports for my hard drives.
Also does anyone that lives in Australia know how to flash my PC Video cards so that I can use them in Mac? I have unsuccessfully flashed 2 of them & both dont work.
Thanks.

Anyone?

How to use MacPro SATA ports 5&6 in Vista

Just spent 2 days figuring this out, so in case someone else is banging their head here's the fix.
To get Vista to enable all the SATA ports on a new MacPro ( so you can add eSATA or extra drives ) you need to force vista to use the "Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller" instead of the "Intel 631xESB/6321ESB...-2680" driver.
Additionally you need to follow the instructions at Enable AHCI booting in Vista after installation.
Ignore the other posts about using Grub, and hacking the firmware, booting Linux and other kinds of crazy. The intel chipset supports AHCI if you force it to use the right driver.
Once finished you need to restart your mac and you should now see 3 x "Intel 631xESB/6321ESB...-269E" adapters, and ATA Channels 0-5, after windows redetects everything.
You may need to download the latest (8.2.x.x) drivers from Intel to get the best results, but it should work with the latest Bootcamp drivers once you force the correct AHCI driver.
You still probably won't be able to get Vista to boot to port 5 & 6 drives (maybe with some Ghost magic), but at least you can use them for something. I've got an external 3.4 TB eSATA array, works great with nothing more than forcing the correct drivers.
OS X already see's the extra ports so nothing needed there.
My install was on Vista x64 with SP1 & Intel 8.2.
Hope this helps.

I wonder if he is referring to this, the closest I could find after Google and trying to find AHCI driver.

Enabling all SATA ports on a 875P Neo-FIS2R

I need to buy a new DVD writer, because my old one died. Since most of them are SATA now, I was wondering if I could enable all 4 SATA ports on my mobo, in order to plug the DVD writer? I already have SATA 1 and 2 ports occupied. Thanks.

The two other SATA ports on your board are provided by the Promise controller. It does not support optical drives.
There are still plenty of PATA (IDE) optical drives around, just find one of those instead.

Do the 8200 elite CMT motherboard SATA ports support SATA port multipliers?

I have an HP-Compaq 8200 elite CMT. I'd like to expand my SATA connection capacity using a SATA port multiplier. Specfications for most of them indicate they work only with motherboards that support the SATA PM / port multiplier feature. Does my motherboard support PM?
Thanks!

@Paul_Tikkanen
Paul,
You have one of the models.
Most Intel PCs that I have come across don't support SATA port multipliers except for MACs.

External SATA Port Multiplier

Hi to all, I have an HP PAVILLON DV3550EL and I would like to buy an External SATA Port Multiplier in order to connect more than one hard disk to the eSATA port, but I don't know if the laptop is esata port multiplier compatible.
Can anybody tell me if it is compatible or not? Is there also some other information that I should know in order to purchase the right product?
Thanks in advance for your availability!

SATA ports 1/2 or 3/4?

Hello
First of all i am planning to overclock.
I'm getting a WD Raptor 10,000RPM SATA drive tommorow and I've been hearing mixed opinions on what SATA ports to use (1/2 for non-oc or 3/4 for OC). Then i've also heard that I can use any port for overclocking. Which is true? My specs are in my sig
thanks

SATA 1 and 2 aren't locked.

Z87-GD65 can't use 3TB disk drives on Intel SATA ports

I've been happily using my Z87-GD65 for several months now with a 256G SSD for Windows 8.1, and 4*2T spinning Seagate drives. I decided it was time to make 'em bigger. So I plugged in a 3TB Seagate ST3000DM001 on one of the Intel SATA ports. The motherboard doesn't recognize there's a drive there at all. If I go ahead and boot, it's very slow to come up and Windows does recognize the drive, but it's unusably slow and eventually just hangs.
Ok... Flash the BIOS on the disk. No better.
Flash the MB BIOS. No better.
Plug in a WD 3T Red drive. Same exact symptoms.
Try different Intel SATA ports. Same symptoms.
Both drives work fine on two other completely different systems (both old LGA1155 systems).
Plug the drive in to the ASM1061 ports on the Z87-GD65 and poof... works like a champ. 170MB/sec from the Seagate, 150MB/sec from the WD.
Well, that's something, but I had intended to replace the 4*2T drives with 4*3T drives. Using the ASM ports is not the answer.
I checked the hard disk drive test report and it claims the ST3000DM001 was tried and works. So I'm pretty stumped. Old MB BIOS didn't work, new MB BIOS doesn't work, old Seagate firmware doesn't work, new Seagate firmware doesn't work, WD doesn't work, multiple ports don't work.
Surely other people are using large drives on these MB's.
Hints?

It does help knowing other people are getting the same hardware to work. Gives me hope.
My first thought was "ain't no way it's the OS" since the MB isn't showing the drives on the display of SATA devices. But just to do a quick check I slipped in a Fedora drive and booted and wow... no problems at all with using the 3T drives. Motherboard still claims no knowledge of them, but Fedora uses 'em fine.
ok... Update the Intel chipset drivers and the IRST and reboot and... it's better. Still broken, but better. Takes about a minute to boot instead of the usual 12 seconds, but once it's up it's working ok best I can tell. So it's getting hung up on something during boot.
Fine... reset the CMOS, PITA though that is since I have to yank the SLI graphics card to get to it.
Put it back together, boot, and... Windows won't boot.
I'm about ready to throw a tantrum but get it together and just start trying things. Yank all the drives but the SSD. No. Boot from Fedora. No. Yank the second graphics card. YES! Put it back in again. YES! Guess I didn't get it seated right the first time, or something. Sure felt ok going in, but I won't argue with results.
Boot W8.1 and... bingo... up in 11 seconds with 3*3T drives in it. And the CMOS claims to see the drives now.
Stripe 'em in Windows software and CrystalMark says it can read 490MB/s and write 450MB/s.
That'll do. Thanks.

Is it possible to bypass Domain Controller Promotion (dcpromo) Hard Drive Check? My Server has an embedded drive instead of a SATA port. (emmc)

I have a small computer with just an embedded drive instead of a sata port. It seemed perfect for a small domain controller, since it has 32G's which is more than enough space, and with a gigabit Ethernet, and 1.6Ghz dual core cpu, seemed more than enough
for what I needed.
Windows 2012, or Windows Server Technical Preview, both install fine on it, but when I run dcpromo to create the domain It fails on selecting the location for files. The error is that the path is not a hard drive. The machine only has USB ports so I can't
add a SATA drive just to store these logs/configs, even if I wanted to.
The actual computer I was trying to use: http://www.ecs.com.tw/LIVA/
Thanks for any help.

On the Windows Server Technical Preview,
Install-ADDSForest -SkipPreChecks -DomainName DOMAIN.CONTOSO.COM -DomainMode Win2008 -ForestMode Win2008R2 –DatabasePath "C:\Windows\NTDS" –SYSVOLPath "C:\Windows\NTDS" –LogPath "C:\Windows\NTDS\Logs"
gives me the error "No NTFS 5 drives exit." (note exit, not exist)
I'll reinstalling windows 2012 and see if I get a different message there.
This was just a standard install, so the drive is definitely NTFS.

Which of my sata ports should I use?

I have this harddrive [http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00471G8CC/] but I want to make sure I'm using the best sata port for it. My desktop is the CQ5720F, here's the link to the motherboard specs [http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02552467&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&cc=us&dlc=en...]
It says I have sata 1 and 2 under "internal connectors" but I have 4 sata ports. So that's the problem, I don't know which one to use. Right now I have it plugged into the one labeled "Sata 3". What should I do?
Thanks, Travis
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The specs are incorrect. All 4 SATA ports are the same and are SATA2.0 ports. I doesn't really matter what port you use, however I would put the main hard drive on #1, secondary HDDs on #2 and #3, and the CD/DVD on #4.

Can't see any devices hooked up to Sata ports #5&6 on K9A2 Plat board

Hi there, I'm new to this forum.
My virgin system consists of
MSI K9A2 Platinum, Bios 1.4
4 GB Corsair
CoolerMaster Silent Pro M600
AMD Phenom II X4 940
Zalman CNPS9700NT
Visiontek ATI Radeon 4850
SuperTalent 64GB Sata II SSD
Samsung SH-223 DVD-RW, Sata II
LiteOn CD-RW IDE
I can get into BIOS and see devices hooked up to Sata ports #1 to #4, but I can't see Sata ports #5 & #6 with any device connected to those ports. I know these Sata ports are connected to a Promise T3 controller.
1. Do I need to install the Promise driver first?
2. Can I install the O/S on a disk drive hooked up to Sata port #5=
Thank you for any help.

1 Yes, or load with F6 during install
2 Yes.
The promise T3 has it own BIOS, you should see it when the controller is turned on as a separate boot page.
