@ robsonsirena:

Thanks vor your report.
I suspect, that it was the low TRIM activity, which previously prevented the detection by the TrimCheck tool.

You probably have to change the hex code of the RAID ROM module.
Please post the DeviceID of your on-board NVIDIA nForce SATA RAID Controller. Then I will try to do the modification of the ROM module for you.

I Fernando I'm sorry for the delay... well I'm looking for an empty hard drive and install so win7 but if it's useful... reading in mmtool pci option rom related to nvraid rom the DeviceID I read it's: (10DE:03EB)
Thanks so much for your effort and in the mean time HAPPY NEW YEAR to U and to all win-raid forum

@ HAZArD:

Attached you can find the NVIDIA RAID ROM v10.0.0.35, which has just been modified and checksum corrected by me for being usable with NVIDIA nForce 430/405/400 (MCP61) chipsets.
Before you are going to update your currently working NVIDIA RAID ROM module, please extract it from the BIOS, open it with an Hex Editor and search for the hex code "DE 10 EB 03". If you should not find such code, please let me know it and attach the nVRAID ROM, which you are currently using. In this case you should not modify your BIOS.

Good luck and Happy New Year!

EDIT The attached modded nVRaid ROM v10.0.0.35 has been removed, because it probably would not work for HAZArD's nForce system.

No, not by the nVRAID ROM module I have attached to my last post.
Reason: The nVRaid ROM v9.87, which you have just linked, has been designed for the DeviceID DEV_03F6 and not for the DeviceID DEV_03EB as being shown by the AMI MMTool.
Questions:

Is it an original or a modded BIOS you are currently using?
If it should be an original (untouched) BIOS, the manufacturer of your mainboard obviously has done a mistake (either when selecting or while inserting the nVraid ROM module into the BIOS).
Which problems did you have with the currently used nVRaid ROM resp. why do you want to update it?

It's an original bios actually I've some problems with the recognition of the dvdrw drive exactly when I'm going to install nas4free long story. Anyway I've made the hex mod "DEV_03F6" in rom http://www.smartredirect.de/redir/clickG...OM-Modules.html and as soon as possible I'll flash it and I'll report obviously the result

@ HAZArD:

The nVRAID ROM module v10.0.0.35, which you just have modded, is only usable with MCP79 NVIDIA nForce RAID Controllers DEV_0ABD.
Why did you modify the OROM this way? Which nForce chipset has your mainboard?
Before you flash any modded BIOS, you should check the DeviceID of your onboard NVIDIA nForce RAID Controller.

No, if you want to modify the nVRaid ROM module at all, you should do it regarding your nForce 630a (MCP67) chipset, but I do not know, which internal DeviceID would be the best suitable.
I repeat my question: Why do you want to update the nVRaid ROM module of the BIOS at all?

Hi Fernando,

Big thanks and koodos for having such a wonderfully informative website....I have learned so much and it has helped me optimize my PC....I was in the middle of customizing my motherboards (Asus Rampage III Formula) bios to the latest classical intel raid rom and that seems to all be making sense....I figured while I'm in there I should do the Marvel 9128 rom as well, I am running two samsung 840 pro ssds and have been using my intel sata 2 ports as the performance on the marvel has been well documented.... The links you have on the first page arent working for the separate parts of that ROM, they are directing me to some page that is part of of german forum and there is no mention of those roms....Also I was wondering if you have any experience if the latest ROM fixes the performance issues with the SATA 3 ports or if I will be still best served with the intel native sata 2 ports?

Thanks again

That is a general Java script problem of some browsers. What you need is a No-Redirect Addon (for Firefox look >here<).

I don't have any own experience with Marvell SATA Controllers, but I doubt, that an update of the Marvell SATA OROM will give you the desired performance.
