I have a Dell Precision T5500, and the embedded controller is only SATA2. I am trying to add-on a PCI-e SATA3 controller but I hit a wall... none that I have tried recognize a SSD at boot time (some not even later).
I have tried two controllers with ASMEDIA ASM1061 chip. No luck, SSD are not seen at boot time, but they are seen in Windows.
I have tried a Dell Perc H310 (RAID). I have tried modding that H310 in LSI-9211-8i in IT mode (non-RAID, flashing succeeded) . Both of those would recognize HDD's (in BIOS and Windows), but not a SSD attached to them.
I am looking also at controllers with Marvell chips, but I would like to know other's opinion.
Does anyone have experience with a working SATA3 adapter in a Dell Precision T3500/T5500?
