D630 SATA DRIVE INSTALLATION FIX
This message is for everyone who is having problems with installing the AHCI for the Dell Latitude D630.
Go to the Lenovo website
http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-62909 and download the Intel Matrix driver that they have. Once you have downloaded it navigate to the folder and extract out the contents. Then go into the folder that says "Prepare' and click "install". It may seem like nothing has happened but you must restart your machine and then go into the BIOS before it reboots. Change the SATA setting to AHCI and the Flash setting(it will prompt you for which Flash must be enabled), and then let your machine fully reboot. Once logged in your machine will find new hardware. Point it to the folder where you extracted the files and it will install the drivers.
Hope this helps

Cool, worked like a charm for me, thanks man! I also recommend applying the latest Intel Storage Manager straight from Intel. They're pushing version 7.8.0.1012 instead of the older 7.0.0.1020 version that Dell and Lenovo are using.
