Samsung 830 SSD Detected as SATA1 on MA785GM board

[OfficeJack]

I recently purchased a Samsung 830 SSD drive to intall with my MA785GM-US2H board.  I performed a clean install AFTER setting the BIOs to the AHCI mode.  Druing installation the only drive attached was the SSD and CD/DVD burner.  During the 1st boot (and since then) the Samsung wa detected as SATA1 device.   After later connecting my WD HDD it was detected correctly as SATA2.
I eMailed Gigabyte support and was told to make sure the SSD was in the SATA0 port (it was), no other help.
On booting the AHCI Option ROM is 3.0.1540.59

I tried the AHCI divers from AMD with no success.  I even tried to pre load them (they would not load).

Even though the SSD at SATA1 is much faster than my HDD was at SATA2 I am frustrated I cannot run in at least the SATA2 mode.

Thanks for Reading,

Jack

Issues with the older chipsets and SSD performance is known.
You will have to live with what you have or upgrade your board.
As far as I can tell, there is no fix. Some chipsets cannot see the
SSD at all so things could always be worse

Hi

Make sure that your motherboard has the latest BIOS and chipset drivers installed. Alkso make sure that you have loaded Optimised BIOS Defaults. During the update with QFlash make sure that you disable the option on the QFlash homepage to Keep DMI Data.
