If you're actually working with an H55 platform, yes you should have access to the storage controller and it should show you options for IDE/AHCI/disabled. I looked up your manual for the motherboard;
https://www.manualslib.com/manual/594553/Foxconn-H55mxv.html?page=39#manual
and sadly you will need to enable IDE and then set the option for your SATA ports to Enhanced.

Please note that some boards will have limited functionality. I owned an Asus Maximus III Formula and the BIOS design was simple yet effective to the point, you could locate what you needed to find.
