Hello-

I just put in my new Neo 2 platinum board, and formated my OS Drive. Now, my SATA Drives are acting as if they were USB Devices. The "Safely Remove Hardware" box sits in my task bar asking me to Stop either of my drives and "Safely Remove" one of them.

I do not or will not ever want to remove either of my drives. Is there any way I can either completely shut off the "Safely Remove Hardware" feature, or possibly even set it to no longer recognize the drives as removable devices? Thank you for any suggestions.

try installing the newest sata drivers, if that doesnt work you could try setting them back up in the sata bios.
