Satellite R850-12R PT52CE Win7 doesn't see SSD disk

I have Toshiba Satellite R850-12R PT52CE notebook and recently bought Adata SP900 256Gb SSD disk.
BIOS can see this disk, but after I tried to instal Windows 7 64bit SP1, at Step where I need to choose place to install, there is nothing shown.
So I can't choose anything.
What can be a problem?
I tried to search AHCI drivers for Windows 7, but found only for XP.
At BIOS I tried to set AHCI also Compatible mode, but no success also.
It would be nice if somebody could share solution.

Hi
AHCI driver is not needed for Win 7 since this Win 7 already contains this driver.
What you can do is to add the Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver which is available on Toshiba European driver page.

And how to add it if I can't select disk and install windows? It seems Rapid Storage Technology Driver can be installed only from windows ...

Hmm… you should use the package from Intel page:
Intel® Rapid Storage Technology
There is an package called “Intel® Rapid Storage TechnologyF6 Driver Diskettes” this contains files which you could add by pressing F6 while setup procedure. |

I have tried to put Adata SP900 to my Bench PC and instal windows faced same problem, instalation don't see this disk also (I have Adata S510 in Bench PC and it works fine). Also tried to put S510 to Toshiba and it also started fine.
So it seems problem is with Adata SP900 256Gb SSD or chipset of it is not compatible with current PCs...

well, this might be possible... did you check if the firmware update is provided by SSD drive manufacturer?
