[Solved] Would AHCI_Intel_Generic_SATA.kext work on Kaby Lake?

[nobodynose]

I just noticed that on my new system, the SATA controllers show up as "Generic AHCI Controller". Would installing Drivers -> Disk -> Intel Generic AHCI SATA from Multibeast fix this, or would it cause my system to not boot because it's intended for 9-Series, X79, and X99 motherboards?

 

[MacMan]

The latest version of AHCI_Intel_Generic_SATA.kext has support for 200 Series motherboards.

I'll fix the description in the next release.

I'll install the kext and see if it works.

I installed the kext from Multibeast (9.1.0), but the SATA controllers are still labeled "Generic AHCI Controller".

But I'm a little bit confused - are you saying there's a later version of the kext available than what's in Multibeast? If so, where do I find it?

 

[MacMan]

The version in MultiBeast 9.1 is 0.3 and has 0xa282 for the 200 Series SATA controller device ID.

Can you check the SATA device ID in IOReg?

 

[nobodynose]

It's 0xa282 (see attached screen caps), so I don't know what the problem could be.

Try renaming SAT0 to SATA.

Thanks, that did the trick.

Not showing as Generic AHCI SATA no more? Showing as 200 Series?

 

[nobodynose]

Well, actually as "Intel 20 Series Chipset".
