I upgraded my desktop system at home to a Samsung 830 series 128GB SSD. Before even trying to install windows (gaming PC ) to the drive and just having it in the case it caused issues. The system would randomly blue screen with a stop 0XF4. I started digging around and couldn't really find a definitive answer.
I looked over the specs on my motherboard and realized I had 2 different SATA III controllers. The intel, and marvell. I never had issues in the past so I never thought to really check it. I just knew the brown and grey ports were SATAIII. Apparently the Marvell controller is inferior to the intel. I moved the SATA cables off the marvell controller and onto the Intel controlled ports. I disabled the marvell controller in the bios since I wouldn't be using it. System currently running stable with zero issues.
Now my Linux OS will have an additional TB for storage.
