spoon87 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 hey i successfully installed kalyway 10.5.1 on my computer. everything seems to work fine but theres a problem with the drive. i saw that in a xbench test. (i guess with drive they mean the hard drive?) here my xbench results, cpu and ram things pretty high but the drive is always so low. because of that my final score is such a worse one. what could be wrong with my drive? http://db.xbench.com/merge.xhtml?doc1=2898...;setCookie=true greetz spoon Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/104391-drive-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoon87 Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 how can i set the sata to ahci mode? it doesnt appear in my bios menu. yes, drive should be ok EDIT its working. i just changed from compatible to enhanced and now my drive is shown as an sata drive in the system profiler. faster startup, real xbench results ar the results!

t.moro Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 how and what osx have u installed?i've your same mb, but an 80gb eide disk, when i'll start the pc with kalyway 10.5.2 during the kernel loading appear: "waiting for root drive"(or device, I don't remember now) and all stops. I've also read to put in the bios the ide mode for sata disk, but mine is eide. for your problem i'll think that there is something to change in the sata Raid utility, u know that the controller has a raid "option" (in the driver cd for windows there is a program to control and turn it on/off).
