Something good and something bad happened.
The good: HWiNFO opened and recognized the drive via PCIe. But it collected little data from the disk, and it doesn't seem to read your SMART.
The bad: and strange is that when I run HWiNFO with Opera browser opened, it got stuck in memory again...
@Martin
CrystalDiskInfo >>> Function >>> Advanced Feature >>> Advanced Disk Search
, and finally it recognizes the disk connected to PCIe.
And I just noticed something on the (Win10) driver page...
I tried both ways, with AIDA64 running and without it. I do not think it's that.
From what I can see in BIOS boot, that SMART function is for IDE mode. I tried in IDE mode too and it didn't make a difference either.
Original SATA ports are controlled by the motherboard chipset, that's no...
The motherboard has this function:
There are no improvements. The problem is the same. HWiNFO freezes when scanning the disk interface. Programs were always able to access S.M.A.R.T. even if that option is disabled. I even tried the optimal stable BIOS settings.
CrystalDiskInfo doesn't crash...
HWiNFO starts and recognizes the drive without the drivers with the PCIE/SATA adapter. But Windows boot is extremely slow, and Device Manager shows an unknown device item, which should be the missing storage controller. When I refresh Device Manager Windows freezes for a few seconds.
Windows...
Well, I updated HWiNFO to the latest version (7.24) and now this happens...
System configuration scan...
Detection of ATA/SCSI Drivers...
...and from there it does not advance. The process gets stuck in memory, and not even a kill process to "HWiNFO64.exe" can close it.
I don't see any log...
Hello. I have found an bug in this disk monitoring program that is not present in other similar programs.
A few days ago I bought a SATA port expansion board for PCIE connection. To be more specific, this model:
SSU "SU-SA3034A" (PCIE 3.0 x1 to SATA 3.0)...
