I really didn’t fix anything. I had the C300 128 sitting on my desk for a couple weeks just because I was in a beta test and didn’t want the down time. The drive was already at the latest Rev so all I did was hook it up to the SATA 3 port. On my MB I have three settings to make because of the P55 chipset. The first was to configure SATA as AHCI the second was to set the Marvell to use AHCI and third (P55) I had to set IO levelup to Sata6G. I did also set it to boot from the C300.
I did install the Marvell driver … That’s all I had to do to get it running.

i installed the marvell driver off the motherboard cd, as well as downloaded the latest off marvell's site onto a usb stick to load from, neither worked

Any body get this sussed?

I have the exact same problem. Mine is complicated by the fact that the SSD isnt recognised in the Intel SATA ports either.

Any ideas?

Hmmm similar... First off, can someone link the most recent driver from the ASUS site?

I just had similar in testing in that my SATA 6GB/s Port 1 will not recognize the C300 yet Port 2 will. I have contacted for RMA but would be curious to know if anyone else has found similar. I havent tried and didnt know of an updates SATA 3 driver.
