GA-X58A-UD5 (rev. 2.0) + Samsung EVO SSD 1GB drive
« on: May 26, 2015, 03:11:41 am »
Does anyone here have experience installing a SSD with this motherboard.? What setting should I enable in BIOS?
I also hear that The Marvel controller on this motherboard is pretty poor: it's speed ids lower than SATA 2 and it does not support TRIM. Should I use the intel SATA ports instead?
Thanks!!
