Follow the steps below to enable the Intel® Smart Response Technology:
1.Installing a conventional SATA hard disk and a solid-state drive (SSD)
2.Enabling RAID mode in BIOS Setup
3.Installing the operating system and drivers to the SATA disk
4.Launching the Intel Rapid Storage Technology utility to enable the Intel Smart Response Technology
•The Intel Smart Response Technology requires a computer system with an Intel Z68 Chipset-based motherboard and an Intel Core series CPU.
•The operating system must be installed to the SATA disk.
•Supported operating systems include Windows 7 and Windows Vista.
•If you have installed the operating system before configuring the Smart Response Technology, all original data on the hard disk will be lost once you enable RAID mode. It is recommended that you back up the hard disk before enabling the Smart Response Technology.
1. Installing a conventional SATA hard disk and a solid-state drive (SSD):
Besides the conventional SATA disk, you also need an SSD to make it work as a cache of the hard disk. The maximum cache memory size is 64 GB. If you use an SSD larger than 64 GB, the space beyond 64 GB can still be used for storing your data.
2. Enabling RAID mode in BIOS Setup:
Turn on your computer and press <Delete> to enter BIOS Setup during the POST (Power-On Self-Test). Set
PCH SATA Control Mode under the Integrated Peripherals menu to RAID(XHD). Then save changes and exit BIOS Setup.
