March 24, 201115 yr I'm starting to put together my build, but I've run into a problem when trying to verify my two Hitachi drives are detected. I receive this message: ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) ata3: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) ata4: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) ata2: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) I went into the bios and saw that both drives are recognized although one says it's an IDE drive. I removed/disabled them from the boot order just in case. When I view the system on my notebook I can only see one drive. My parts include: MSI 880GMA-E53 AM3 AMD 880G http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130308, which has 8 SATA ports IcyDock 5-in-3s Hitachi 2TB 5k3000 (2x) Lexar Firefly 4GB drive AMD Athlon x2 If someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.
