This post here explains a method for setting a port as internal but I don't understand exactly how to enter it into regedit.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\storahci\Parameters\Device]
"TreatAsInternalPort"=hex(7):30,00,31,00,32,00,33,00,34,00,35,00,00
Could anyone advise on how I use this command?

This is a snippet from a .reg file. The easiest way to make these registry changes (in this case, adding a value) is to save this as a .reg file and open it.
notepad.
.reg file, making sure you choose All Files from the Save as type drop down:
Upon clicking Yes, the changes should be made. You may need to reboot, depending on the changes it makes.

One can do this manually using regedit by browsing to the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\storahci\Parameters\Device, and adding a new Multi-string value named "TreatAsInternalPort" then edit it as binary and enter the values listed after "hex(7):" without the commas. Note the hex values listed in the question are "012345" not sure if this is garbage data or what actually needs to be entered – Yorik – 2016-03-03T17:58:24.427@Yorik Yes of course, but owing to the fact the key was in hex I didn't want to over-scope the question and this seemed the easier approach. Feel free to add it as another answer though, it's certainly true :) – Jonno – 2016-03-03T18:01:43.630
No need, consider it an amendment. I agree that the for the majority of cases, the REG file is the way to go. – Yorik – 2016-03-03T18:02:38.027
Thank you very very much, this has solved my AHCI issue. – Mira SC – 2016-03-03T19:03:16.643
