    Since I have no RAID setup and there any compatibility or performance hit in any way shape or form if I switch SATA to compatibility mode?

    Even a few lost frames while gaming would be unacceptable.

    Your hard drive has no real influence on your gaming, the only thing it does is load things for you.

    You wont experience any hit to gaming for switching to compatibility mode... honestly i think i still have mine set there. I'll need to check :confused:
