I have an ASUS M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 with an AMD Phenom II 955, 4x 4GB DDR3 RAM, two WD Black 500GBs in RAID 1, and an ASUS Radeon HD 6770 video card. I tried to add a Samsung SSD 840 Pro for my OS and use my two WD Black 500GBs in RAID 1 for file storage.
The mobo won't recognize the SSD. Tried every BIOS setting, removed all other drives, etc.,...no good. Tested the SSD on another computer, so I know it's good. Sent the mobo back on an RMA for repair. It was supposedly repaired and returned...still doesn't recognize the SSD. I welcome any ideas, but suspect the mobo is bad or can't handle the SSD.
It's been a while since I've started a new build. I'm looking for a new mobo, preferably one that will allow me to use my CPU/RAM and will support an SSD for the OS and a RAID 1, plus my optical drive. I've had good luck with ASUS and ABIT, but I'm not tied to them.
