@sparkion:
Welcome at Win-RAID Forum!

As you can read within the start post of this thread, Intel ICH9R Southbridge systems running in AHCI mode are natively not supported by the Intel RST driver v11.2.0.1006 WHQL.
If you want to install the Intel RST driver v11.2.01006 nevertheless (which I recommend to do), you have to take the mod+signed variant of this driver. You can find it within the start post of >this< thread.

But upon installation, manually when i select the iaAHCI (or do I need the iaSTOR) i can choose from several chipsets.

Since you want to install an AHCI driver, you have to choose the file named iaAHCI.inf (the iaStor.inf is only for RAID systems).

The only ICH9 chipset though is the ICH9M-E/M controller. Not the ICH9R.
Should I still use this one for ICH9R?

No, this would not work, because the Intel ICH9R SATA AHCI Controller has another DeviceID than the ICH9M one.
Essential for the choice of the correct one of the listed Intel SATA Controller model is the DeviceID of the in-use one. You can verify the DeviceID of your on-board Intel SATA AHCI Controller by running the Device Manager, expanding the section "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers", right-clicking onto the listed AHCI Controller (maybe named "Standard AHCI Controller" or similar) and choosing the options "Properties" > "Details" > "Property" > "HardwareIDs". There you will see the DeviceID of the Intel ICH9R SATA AHCI Controller. It is DEV_2922.

Danke schön für das schnelle Antwort.

1 follow up question, just to be sure: Can I use these modded drivers for the windows 10 operating system (64 bit).
I ask this because i see that the alst update on that post is in 2013.

Danke schön (in advance)

Yes, but you have to import the Win-RAID CA Certificate according my guide before you can install the mod+signed driver.

I had done it already in February and have been disappointed by the performance. You can find the related benchmark results >here<.

Ok I get that. That is probably why i get the : "A problem was encountered while attempting to add the driver to the store" message when installing.
I off course use the "have disk" method.
I looked first in the thread and probably i overlooked it, but where can i find "but you have to import the Win-RAID CA Certificate "?

Hi Fernando!

Thanks for helping me out with the sata ahci drivers for the x48/ ich9r chipset.
To be honest I changed it back and forth and still I'm stuck at very low read speeds and write speeds (with big single files maximum of 38-40 MB/Sec, otherwise much much lower like 19-20 MB/Sec) on my samsung 850 pro SSD and my Intel SSD's.
Ahci enabled in bios of course. On sata300 ports Ok, but in Ahci native mode should it still be better then this.
I cannot figure it out after spending hours on testing and reading.

Same low speeds with usb 3.0 drivers. (i posted details in the usb 3.0 thread).

I've got a feeling my whole system is bottlenecked.

Without the knowlege of
a) your special system configuration (mainboard model/disk drives/CPU/Graphics card),
b) the OS you are running and
c) the currently used AHCI driver
I am not able to give you an advices.

I use this version for this device without any AHCI problem:

So, Fernando, you should add in the Notes: (AHCI mode) this other supported deviceID DEV_8D62.

Of course, i forgot:

I have the low writes on both modded drivers you suggested as with the 'Standard AHCI driver' from Microsoft.

Where should I add it?
None of the normal Intel RSTe SATA drivers named iaStor.sys or iaStorA.sys do support the DEV_8D62 Intel sSATA AHCI Controller.
