Under "storage" in bios it gives options of:
1.Enable/disable The SATA chip
2.When enabled you can toggle the "function" IDE/RAID/AHCI
3.I tried AHCI first and it gave me some problems,then it turns out it's made by Intel,so I switched to "RAID" right away
Then made the floppy of the Asus Support CD and used it during install.
4.My SATA DVD only works when the SATA "function" set to IDE, but then you loose the RAID
So as far as I know you can't have raid and SATA DVD drive at the same time.
I ended up using a sata/ide to usb adapter- came in handy.
Then just swapped DVD drives later with my other machine (it had IDE DVD).
