Since when I installed XP i dind't know diddly squat about this AHCI bullshiat.

Still blue screened on startup after I tried to enable it in the BIOS, but somehow copying the files over and reg hacking worked!

eSATA is aboot twice as fast as USB2, so it's well worth it now!

BAH, I installed that BlacX thingy and somehow it doesn't work in eSATA mode. blah.

Any suggestions other than reinstalling windblows?

Yikes, had to use the SiL raid conflagration managerwhatzit and kill the raid? that somehow existed on the drive and make a "new" raid on the drive.

It works, somehow hah. We'll have to see next time I throw a drive in there, or try using this drive on another puter.
