Hello, iordache_srn!
I looked in your BIOS and found that your AHCI controller works in RAID-mode.
If you want to change RAID to AHCI i'll tell you how solve this problem by 2 ways.
1 way-may be expensible, I can add AHCI option in System Configuration menu or unlock Advanced Tab but mod cannot be flashed because new HP Bioses are RSA signed. Only HW SPI Programmer can do this job.You should backup your current bios and go to laptop services.Servicemen will soldering out the bios chip and flahing mod by SPI Programmer.
2 way-read this thread
https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-R...-EFI-shell, you must create HP recovery USB stick and boot from it.
Give next command setup_var 0x36 0x01 (for AHCI, 0x02-for RAID, 0x00-for IDE)
If memory not protected to write your controller will work in AHCI-mode.
Good Luck!
It will do, if protect to write not activated.

if protect to write is activated what happens?
how do i undo if anything goes wrong?
im sorry 4 all the question and i thank u once again
Your request is MacOS X, it primary needs for enabled AHCI, IDE is old mode and not supported by Macintosh microcodes.
Raid mode is usual for AMD controllers, in that cause RAID works better than AHCI.
If your laptop works in nonAHCI, we can try to set it to AHCI, from USB or by Programmer in laptop services.
