    Another clueless rep, I've missed you guys. One or two of you show up ever 1-2 years, active for 3 weeks, then never show up again. Give my regards to @Alienware-Wasserman , @Alienware-K_Castro, @Alienware-L_Porras, and dearest Frank Azor...

    Dell graciously removed SATA 3 speeds on both hard drive slots. We had a custom BIOS that returned that speed, and unlocked more features in the BIOS that Dell so graciously locked away.

    Get BIOS From here OP: https://www.techinferno.com/index.php?/files/file/65-alienware_m17x_r3_bios_a12_unlocked__sata_fix/
    You need to meet the requirements to earn that BIOS, nobody is just going to hand it to you.
