I see two manuals in English there. E5020 has no AHCI. E5325 has
some text added to it for AHCI. And E5325 has ten pages added to it.

The second effort still isn't perfect, because it doesn't show how
you get to "AHCI Settings", as shown in section 3.4.3. There is no
corresponding entry exposed in the picture in section 3.4.2.

Like i recently posted, the manual may refer to the setting as "LEGACY" or "NATIVE". Native being AHCI mode.

OK, I'm going out on a limb and saying that the newest file would be the
first one to check.

If the picture doesn't show how to get there, then access the BIOS and look
for the setting. IMHO, if somebody doesn't feel comfortable doing that
without a picture, then they probably shouldn't be making any BIOS changes
anyway.
