Hoping to contribute as I get tons of info from here.
I don't know if it applies to other Z77 series board but at least it worked for me.
I have GA-Z77-DS3H and know many of users with this board SATA controller is shown as unknown AHCI controller.
I know it is purely cosmetic but I wanted to show this correctly.
After running bridgehelper 5.0, my SATA controller showed correctly shown as "intel7series AHCI controller"
After Mountain Lion release, I thought ML would have info for Z series chipset but it didn't as it changed back showing unknown ACHI controller.
after doing small research and comparison with Lion kext, I learned by adding a string, it displays correct name!
So it turns out adding
<string>pci8086,1e02</string>
to Intel7SeriesAHCI in S/L/E/AppleAHCIport.kext (show package, then edit info.plist) is the answer.
I have attached edited AppleAHCIport.kext so you can just use kextbeast, run permission, then reboot and it should show correctly.
If your SATA controller shows a name already with Mountain Lion, you don't have to use this.
Anyway, I hope some of you have a use for this.
