I got this laptop with bloated system and HDD with increasing numbers of bad secors right at the OS backup partition so I recommended SSD for the owner right away as there is Vista licence only.
So I got this A-DATA SX900 128GB SSD and installed fresh Vista 64. But what the heck, it is running as UDMA6 and limited to 110 MB/s only! Any idea? There is Nvidia MCP77MV or nForce 730/GeForce 8200 chipset supporting SATA-300 drives. IIRC, nForce starting with nForce 4 already incorporated AHCI stuff even while not running in AHCI directly. Supposedly, AHCI is turned on in this laptop but there is (as usually) NOTHING to be set in BIOS. I tried reinstalling the drivers and uninstalling channels, nothing.
It is also strange it actually detects IDE primary/secondary which should not be possible…
