PCI\002 = HDDs connected to RAID controller

Windows will detect AHCI out of the box, but not the RAID controller. If I load the driver for the RAID controller, Windows will unload the AHCI driver (since the RAID driver.inf claims it would support the AHCI and the RAID DeviceIDs, but it only detects the RAID controller).

For obvious reasons I want to install Windows on the SSD and use the HDDs for data storage. Currently I can only use either SSD or HDDs, not both.

I deliberately asked an "unspecified" question starting the topic since I didn't want to inflate a bigger problem-complex which I already had reduced to one specific single problem.
you would need to get the drivers into windows setup somehow so that you don't get the bsod issue (because you'd install onto the raid controller to prevent it, do all this work, then reinstall onto the SSDs with the new driver running PCI\001), or, you can take advantage of this thread to modify the .inf to remove the listed support for PCI\001 from your driver. better move fast on that thread, by the way ;]
