sata not being disabled
hi i built a new computer. parts are: msi x470 gaming plus motherboard, amd ryzen 7 2700x, saphire radeon rx 580, vengeance 16gb ddr4 3200, samsung 970 evo plus 500gb nvme ssd, seasonic focus 80 + gold 550watt power supply. ok, i had a speed problem with the ssd, we installed the ssd into #2 slot. according to what we read, the sata was disabled. not true. we were only getting half the speed. we called msi suport. they advised us to move the ssd to # 1 slot. we did and got full speed on our ssd.
i'm writing this because of the lack of information we received, before building this. we did hours of research, be fore starting this project, and this never came up. we elected to install the ssd in slot 2 to eliminate a heat problem. thank you for listening. pothound
