I believe this is because the controller is Marvell (or JMicron eSATA or similar) external to the MB chipset. Its just how Windows deals with that device controllers BIOS.
Marvell 88SE9485/9445?
have a look in Device Manager under "SCSI and RAID controllers"
if the controller is on a PCI card, what is the card called? or if its onboard, what is the mobo?
