Title: Wake From Sleep Solution - Intel SATA 0 Mandatory? i'm on X79-UD5
Post by: rupaniii on September 19, 2015, 11:05:44 pm
I ask EVERYONE with a motherboard with a Wake From Sleep issue...
Are you plugged into Intel SATA 0?

I was brainstorming as a programmer and thought ... "hmm, i'd probably hard code that to SATA  0 as a presumption. "

I moved my cable to SATA 0 and ironically, that worked.

Are all of your boot drives on SATA 0?
Please everyone check and post your experiences.

I'm on a GA-x79-UD5 . I once didn't have this issue, then I reworked my board, updated drives, moved to an SSD, and later in those issues, i never really paid attention to my cables, i had nothing plugged into SATA 0/1 for a while, no particular reason, sometimes had the BD.  plugged into it, no reason.

But now, with my boot drive plugged into INTEL SATA 0 (there is also a Marvel controller for ACHI/IDE/RAID) i've repeatedly worked, gone into sleep for a couple minutes, half hour, 2 hours, etc... and it's waking from sleep from mouse or keyboard and they are both USB, same ones it would infinite boot loop in before.

Again, please let everyone know your results.

I've tested this various ways all weekend. It appears to hold true for the X79-UD5.

You'd think their BIOS program would snoop it's own settings to see what the default boot HDD Is and look for the file there. Wacky.

I happen to have my samsungs connected to ports 0 and 1, but haven't heard of anyone having wake specific issues with disks connected to other SATA ports.  Could (note, I said could)  have something to do with your config, hardware, F/W or BIOS rev...  or combination of some or all of these.

I have seen this issue around the web over and over again. This is why I created the thread.
Thanks, your root drive is on 0 then? Or you at least have an HDD/SSD on 0. That's feedback.
I am hoping to hear from anyone who's been having the issue do this and give results for them.
