What is the difference between the "Non-RAID5 mode" and the "AHCI mode"? I've an ATI Technologies, SB700/SB800 SATA Controller and in the BIOS I can choose between Raid, AHCI and IDE mode but my box only start in Raid mode. This is what I get from lspci -vvv in Linux.

Kernel driver in use: ahci
At the end it's saying "Kernel driver in use: ahci". Is it good? How can I verify what mode it is in Windows?
