Asmedia ASM1061 PCIe Sata III Card Works With Mountain Lion

[tot31]

I just got my ASM1061 card today. I bought it from ebay last week and straight I put it into my Asus P6T x16 PCIe slot and ML recognize the card OOB. Here's my screenshot. Now I'm planning to get a SSD to pair with it.

When you installed OSX and then used MultiBeast did you install 3rdParty SATA or ESATA? Or is OSX have the drivers/kext to power the card OOB?

I installed AHCI_3rdParty_SATA from Multibeast.

Thanks for clearing that up. I have the same ASmedia chip on my Motherboard and was wondering if I still needed to install the 3rdParty (E)SATA kext from MultiBeast.

I have the OCZ Vertex4 SSD. It's the fastest drive i'v ever owned (Love it). only kink you need to install TRIM enabler in multibeast too.

Thanks again,

Since you going to use it with SSD then use the 3rdParty_SATA and if you want hot swappable disk then choose the eSATA.
