Nvidia nForce5 NCQ support status?

Nvidia nForce5 NCQ support status?

[Jan De Luyck]

Hello list,

I was wondering what has happened with the NCQ support for nForce5 chipsets? 
I've got one (on an Abit KN9-SLI), and I've found no further mentions about 
it for a while.

Kind regards,

Jan

I asked about it almost two months ago on this list, a month before that
in private, never got an answer. The promise we got from Allen Martin
from NVidia will be 7 months old on 10th May:

BTW I have the same motherboard, I had to upgrade the BIOS
to v18 to have a stable forcedeth and USB keyboard.

Best regards,

Still waiting for information or a patch from NVIDIA to implement this. 
It seems they've left those chipsets out in the cold, as we have ADMA 
support on the nForce4 and the latest 6-series chipsets apparently 
support AHCI..
