After about 3 full months of release the errata on the X99/C610 has already grown to 9 pages, 25 items. My personal favorite is errata 22) SATA signal voltage violation exceeding ATA specification 3.1 for both tx and rx connector for any SATA I or II device with no plan to fix of course. The neat part is a similar erratum is in the 8 and 9 series PCH update but includes only SATA I devices... so they just doubled down and expanded that problem on the X99 to include any SATA 3Gb/s HDD or SSD you might use. A real bonus. http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/chipsets/x99-chipset-pch-spec-update.html

Is this some sort of ****ing joke? I wont even use RAID0 on SATA 600 ports anyway as my board has M2, but still this is bullsh1t. LOL, wow. God damn Intel & their monopoly...

Can confirm ^^

Using raid here with zero issues

Using raid 0 on 850pro x2 and raid 0 on 840evo x 2 without any issues..

You won't have a problem up to first 6 SATA ports BUT As far as I understand: SATA ports 0-5 do not support TRIM on RAID 0 - BIG joke for SSD users SATA ports 6-9 do not install an Intel driver and revert to a standard Microsoft driver. Imho intel realy deserve a middle finger, this is like a bad joke. WTF Intel 😛uke2:

DRAMA DRAAAAMAAA 🙂 on other hand with that kind of mobo you use: -dedicated RAID card if pro (as more reliable and fast) -PCIe SSD already in raid for perf. maybe that's explain how long it take to figure that there is a bug

People need to read motherboard manuals before buying, in every manufacturers boards manuals it clearly states that the four "s" SATA ports have the Microsoft AHCI driver, no RAID is supported. Most MFG's are installing e SATA's on one of the ports. The first six ports support only one RAID installation (that means no other drives other than the RAID). In the MFG's RAID driver release, trim is supported in the driver. On my ASROCK X99M Fatal1ty Board I can verify that my RAID array (2 x MX100 512GB Drives) is functioning perfectly. On my "S" SATA ports I have one "E" SATA, a Blu-Ray, and 2 x WD Caviar Black and Green. I have Tested Trim's functionality Windows Verifies it's working. The ASROCK X99M board is totally fault free and a dream board to work on, best layout ever. I have had no performance issues.

You really think asrock is the BEST? Have you tried Asus RoG Boards I am in love with mine. Seems I always have the oldest PC in every thread. Man I suck 😏maybe if intel would make upgrading worth it...

Ummm, they have??? Yes, yes you do suck, and its not cause of your PC, it's cause you think that a first gen i7 is still a fast machine... its not. I wouldn't game on one for money. Also, you dont have your RAM running at 2400mhz. Nelahem didnt do over 2133mhz, like ever. It's what you have it at for your sig, not what the RAM can do. Be honest. Not one (knowledgeable) person here would believe that dude, not without a pic of stability.

I was pretty much dying of laughter when I read "ASRock" and "Dream Board"... lol

Me too..Zero Issues..:D

Hello, I don't know if anybody will respond to this thread anymore... I have currently been building PC's as a hobby for quite some time now (15 Years), and I'm running into an issue that I feel may be related to this... I have a SSD Raid-0 setup on the X99 chipset, ASRock X99M Fatailty - Please no BrandBoy arguments - I have swapped out Motherboards X99M Extreme/X99M Fatality, SSD Drives, PSU and I am still am losing one of my SSD Drives in Raid.. after 4 or 5 startups I just lose one of my raid drives(the bios does not even detect it). A full shutdown, removal of power from the PSU and startup fixes the issue every time. Is this just an issue with the x99 chipset and raid? If I buy a raid controller will that fix it? I just dropped 2500 on this new rig, I cant justify buying a 400 dollar raid controller because Intel dropped the ball, any affordable Raid-0 2 Drive controllers out there? Sub 100$?

X58 RAID still works fine :P

X58 RAID still works fine :P

Ya the Raid-0 on my Asrock Z77 works fine too but that dosent help me any real ideas?

Maybe I should just refund the SSDs and get a M.2

Honestly if you really want a cheap raid controller to fix the problem, I'd buy one of these: https://www.serversupply.com/CONTROLLERS/SAS-SATA/SERVERAID%20M1015/IBM/46M0831.htm and flash it to LSI9211-IR following this guide: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/topic/29059-sas2008-lsi92409211-firmware-files/ It requires some effort obviously but the controller is extremely reliable for how cheap it is.

I don't really want a raid controller, I want my **** to work right, but I am guessing it might be a work around? The performance is so good on Haswell-E seamed like the right choice over skylake but it also seams like X99/Haswell-E is just abandoned by Intel...

Would not being in UEFI be part of the problem?
