**** 03/17/2011: The problem mentioned in this thread is now resolved by BIOS version 2.50 ****
Hi
I'm using 890GX extreme 3 with 2 SATA drives, one for OS and one for periodic backup.
With my old AMD 785G based motherboard, I can safely remove my backup drive from hotswap bay with Windows 7 taskbar button.
There is no SATA drive show up in that safely remove list with 890GX. SATA mode in BIOS is set to AHCI.
I tried installing AHCI and sourthbridge driver from AMD website but still no luck.
Anyone has the same problem?
This is annoying because Asrock clearly stated this "hot plug" feature in the motherboard specification page.
