So I'm an idiot because Sandvich has a 1366 board, so no Intel 6GBps ports. Thus he gets to use the Marvell ones, which while not as good as a real 6GBps port (Intel), they still do way better than SATA 3GBps ones.

how can I be sure I'm running in ahci? That part seems a little tricky. I thought I installed drivers when i installed windows, but how can i check to make absolutely sure? Also, I think i have the same drive as you, Stephen... ocz vertex 3 max iops 120gb, what ahci driver should I be using with my AMD mb, do I use the marvell ones or the amd ones? That is if i have to reinstall to make the fucking thing work in ahci.
