Tried to connect my ide hd to a sata port using an adapter and it was not reconized, also tried conecting the adapter to a dvd player and it did not show up either would so would u summize that the adapter was bad. The bios setting are turned on and it is a new board with everything else working; just don't have any sata hds to try. Thought I read that when sata was connected that it became the first controller and the ide then came up as second controller. Any info on sata connections for this board is appreciated. gigabyte ga-ma770-ds3....REDDEVIL, u have the same board, right, any ideas?
