Hello All!
I got an Acer 774 Notebook, which has 2 HDD Slots. But since Acers Plastic would cost ~60EUR, I want to use a HDD Caddy inside the DVD Drive.
I Bought a Caddy, placed the HDD inside aaaaand - Freeze. Just right after the BIOS Post.
Here are the Configs I tried:
1. Without Caddy and DVD -> BOOT
2. Caddy inside, no HDD in Caddy -> BOOT
3. Caddy inside, with HDD -> NO BOOT
4. Caddy inside, with HDD, SATA Port disabled -> BOOT
So the Problem is that the BIOS tries to init(?) something @the ATAPI or something..
The Drive inside the Caddy is shown in the Bios, with correct Serial and co.
It just freezes after the Post. I read this Post, but since there was no Solution I open this one.
I use a flashed BIOS from here which enabled the "Intel" Tab - I tried multible Options, but nothing works.
I hope someone could help me!
Regards
