I am only able to do a Google search like you can do. Maybe you will find a suitable BIOS for your board at >this< site.
If you want an overview about the chipset manufacturers AHCI and RAID ROM modules, which are part of the mainboard BIOS, you may look >here<.

I know that, because I have 2 SSD's.

Hello guys!
I'm using the same mobo with a moded bios made 5 years ago, but i have no luck to make a stripping RAID with 2 WD640 GB. Modding was necesarry due to CPU and higher capacity HD's.
I used as starting point latest asus bios C18E1013, that because I use an AMD Barthon 3200+.
With CBROM I replaced SiI3112 4247.bin driver with latest version available at that time 4283.bin. No success.
I'm verry confused by Silicon Images products name, SiI3112a and SiI3112. When i boot computer it display SiI3112a. When i use SiFlashTool it display SiI3112. Wich one i have? Desperately searching for propper driver, i read somewhere, that "a" came from ASUS.
If u do still have any tips please let me know. I will try a new modded bios with latest 4402.bin driver. Keep finger crossed for me.
Thank you!

^^^ As long as you use the proper patched bios file (10084402.bin) for this board, you're good to go. Don't confuse it with the 10134402.bin as that is for the A7N8X-E mobo. I currently use the 4402 patch and just simply booting from a single SATA drive.

Does anyone know why?
