Open your DSDT with some text editor and search for Device (SAT1) . On top of this string you will find this :

Code:

                Method (_DSM, 4, NotSerialized)
                {
                    Store (Package (0x02)
                        {
                            "device-id", 
                            Buffer (0x04)
                            {
                                0x22, 0x3A, 0x00, 0x00
                            }
                        }, Local0)
                    DTGP (Arg0, Arg1, Arg2, Arg3, RefOf (Local0))
                    Return (Local0)
                }
            }

            Device (SAT1)
            {
                Name (_ADR, 0x001F0005)......

Change the numbers highlighted in 81 and 26 .

After restart, if your sata is listed as ESB2 you can trash your ahciportinjector and IOAHCIBlockStorage kexts and remake the Extensions.mkext

I also recommend FileMerge.app to compare DSDT files easier. It helped me a lot and it came with developer tools

Thanks - but that was the old DSDT - prior to doing Snoc's suggested extra USB and new SATA . I made sure to delete the old SATA.
See new screen shots and you will see that I am getting ESB2 - but my HDDs are still seen as Removable media . . dunno why.
I've been using BBEdit (trial) with folding and file comparison - got that hint from another thread.
New DSDT attached.
