Wow, griffin800, you are the bomb! Thanks so much for sharing your findings. I have, in the meantime, come to the same conclusion: there is a missing piece for non-apple motherboards. If this is actually true, then I think Apple will need to update this. Surely they didn't think of keeping thunderbolt target disk mode fenced away from the rest of the world. I have an older MBP that has a firewire 400 and that guy can get mounted on any windows machine.
I am not giving up, will continue to monitor the issue and get back here.
The main reason for this concern was to determine if the hackintosh can work with thunderbolt hardware such as blackmagic pro video stuff. I will get one in the mail on the 8th or so, and will report here if it works okay regardless of the target disk mode issue.
On the other hand, this specific motherboard will only give you 1 working thunderbolt port. The top one has yet to function with an external screen like the bottom one does.
Thanks so much again for your hard work, you've definitely stepped this up a notch.
