I never had good results with the ahci driver - hardware-specific |

drivers have always worked better for me. |

No, no, no! Don't touch the motherboard voltages! They have nothing |
| 14 |
to do with the connected drives. Surely you must have noticed that |
| 15 |
power to the drives comes directly from the power supply. If the |
| 16 |
drives are not receiving sufficient voltage, a new, bigger power supply |
| 17 |
is the only option. |
