I have no idea what the SATA controller's original mode was, but just now it was set to IDE. I tried switching it to AHCI, but that didn't improve anything, and generated a new "AHCI BIOS not installed" error during boot, so I switched it back to IDE. Either of the RAID settings seem like bad choices, since I want direct access to the physical drives for ZFS.
