Hello, I'm having issues installing Windows 8.1 on my SSD while using AHCI. I had Windows 7 running fine in RAID before and I don't remember having any issues when installing. I've tried installing drivers but none of them seem to work. The SSD shows up in UEFI so my question is do you know of anything I'm missing? I don't want to install using IDE because I'd like to have TRIM. Sorry if this seems a little jumbled as typing on a phone isn't easy.

I identified the problem: the SSD isn't appearing in Windows. The second one was functioning properly.
