Hey guys!
Just got my Phoenix 100mb! and just upgraded to 2.1FW
just few quick questions ..re performance tips..
• Run system in AHCI mode in BIOS
- did this easy, but is there any way to make sure i am on AHCI mode?
• Use Intel Matrix Storage Manager AHCI driver
http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Deta...%2064&lang=eng
- how do i check if i'm already on it? i dont remmeber installing the asus drivers.. so im thinking im on it (native Windows 7 drivers)
and lastly, about this HDDErase .. ya'll seem to be recommending this.. but it's so primitive and such hassle to setup, use USB/Floppy, etc etc.. right now, im on paragon HD Manager, w/ my Phoenix currently slaved, all i have to do is RIGHT CLICK and select WIPE PARTITION .. w/c i believe produces the same result as HDDerase.. does it not?
Hope to find enlightment
Regards
TJ
