Hi
I installed yesterday new bios 119 for DH67GD and tried the new feature giving the possibility to enable / disable hotswap on each sata port.
Management Engine driver updated, all drivers latest rev.
When using Microsoft drivers only I appréciate now to be able to disable hotswap on the system disk (port 0) and data disk (port1) which then does not appear in the safely remove icon.
Unfortunately, port3, considered before by windows 7 drivers as an hotswap port, has lost this property, even when enabled in the bios.
Inserting a disk is no more detected, and a disk present at startup does not appear in safely remove icon.
My sata ports:
0, 1 : internal HDD
2 : optical drive
3 : Hopefully for an Antec Easy sata rack for bare drive (hotswap needed)
4: e-sata for front case thru Antec Easy Sata extra cable/connector (or other mean to route port 4 to front bezel)
5: e-sata backplate.
With the new bios I have to use port 4 (e-sata) for the rack and the front bezel e-sata is lost.
Using Intel Rapid Storage (1027 rev) the result is the same.
I still have a B2 rev. PCH but I understood there is no change other than the famous transistor... and the ports are working fine (for the moment).
Any similar experience ?
