oddities with OS2AHCI version 2.04

It is true that Intel introduced this AHCI specification but its a general standard like most interface specifications.
--- Quote ---The OS2AHCI adapter device driver is based on older code from Linux or BSD. There has never been a certification process (that would fail) at all.

If I'm not mistaken then the core driver was ported around 2012, BSD code. A "funny" thing is when we still need to bother with AHCI but should already move to NVMe. Somebody has an open ticket at AN for a non working AHCI driver on a current system? What is not working, the initialization ? Lars should open a ticket for his issue anyway.

I have not been able to do that on boards with the X370 chipset, the B350 chipset and the A320 chipset using both a Ryzen 7 and Ryzen 5 CPU. Even an A12 APU with those chipsets is problematic.

I will try to find out.. Also don't forget that with Ryzen some ports are severed directly by the integrated chipset from the CPU, with the A12 (Bristol Ridge?) its integrated chipset is disabled when used together with a external chipset like in your case. What means problematic? Write errors?
--- Quote ---Also, any board with as ASMedia chipset for AHCI is a no go. From that the only conclusion that can be drawn is that there is NO standard unless it is an Intel or Intel supported chipset with our OS2AHCI driver.

This ASMedia ship is not a so called fake raid adapter? There is a standard, just because new hardware doesn't work from the start is another issue, or why work older amd ahci chipsets with no problem?
Ian Manners:
A quick side question,
what size is the ahci-2.04.exe package? I see the latest version is a lot smaller, I haven't been able to install it as the file is corrupt so after a couple of weeks I have just re downloaded it but it still shows as corrupt, unable to run the exe or extract the files.

98876 0 ahci-2.04.exe
Dave Yeo:
The version on the 5.0.1.6 ISO is 98876 bytes and it installs fine. Retesting, warpin says it is 2.04. The driver is 63KB and the documentation is 53KB according to Warpin. I pressed cancel at the install phase as I've already installed this version of ArcaOS a few times.

Are you using XWP with turbo folders enabled? When installing with FM/2 and Filestar 2, my wpi would not install because the WPS default thought they were text files and was trying to read them as text files. I disabled Turbo folders and all WPIs and EXEs installed nicely.
