PC Drivers & Software

I have an x470 motherboard with a gen 2 Ryzen processor and installed StoreMI.  First, only one out of the three standard HDDs in my system shows up as a potential for StoreMI cache, more importantly, the one drive that is found is considered to be connected to a 3rd party controller though all drives are connected to the MB and no other controller card is even installed.  The drive controller is using the Windows "Standard SATA AHCI Controller", not some other driver.  I've contacted AMD support but am not hearing back from them.  Anyone else see this issue and is there a fix other than paying for some other vendor's software to do what StoreMI does?

Typically, the SATA Drives that are connected to non AMD SATA controller is considered as connected to 3rd party SATA controller and is not support by StoreMI.

Most of the mother boards now a days comes with 2 SATA Controllers. One AMD and and other 3d Party (ex: ASMedia)

There are SATA Ports on mother boards that are mapped to AMD or 3rd Part SATA Controller.

All you need is to look up the board specification, see where are the AMD related SATA ports , connect the SATA drives(HDD/SDD) to it for it to be eligible under AMD StoreMI.

Hope it solved the problem for you.
