According to the dmesg you provided, your controller is detected as a "generic ATA controller", thus possibly it might run into some "compatibility" mode indeed. You might want to try if using 6.2 or 7-CURRENT solves your problem. You could check this without actually installing it. Just download a bootable ISO and checkout the dmesg using the scroll lock button. Good luck! - Veronica
