Here you will find a native (AHCI) SATA driver for CD-ROMs, published in | |
2008 by Hewlett-Packard. It originally comes from Intel, apparently HP only | |
packaged it. Its license is very restrictive, but it's better than nothing I | |
guess. It's also hard to tell whether the license relates to the driver | |
itself (AHCI.SYS), or the SP39596 package built around it, or both. | |
The original package, as published by Hewlett-Packard, is named SP39596.EXE. | |
It is a Win32 executable that extracts files, and allows to create a boot | |
floppy. Since I am interested only in the ACHI CD-ROM driver it comes with, | |
I provide here also an archive containing only the files related to that. | |
