SATA Hot swap not working

Ever since I got my new motherboard, a Gigabyte 890FXA-UD5, I no longer have hot swap capability on my SATA ports and always need to do a "Scan for hardware changes" whenever I swap my SATA disk in my front drive bay.

It's not a huge problem but is an unnecessary PITA I'd like to get resolved. My old motherboard didn't have this problem, I have a feeling it's just a question of installing compatible SATA drivers, but how do I know which drivers support hot swap?

Thanks

Yes it is, I know with my old motherboard I had a similar issue due to the drivers I was using and different drivers solved the issue.
