You can see in the device manager images posted above that it says Intel c610/x99 chipset, so please reference this to make sure for me, as I know you have mentioned something bad about the IRST drivers for Intel C600 series boards. I have often just been told that I don't at all need to have the Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver for max performance, but I want to pass it by an expert first. Moreover, I know that in reading much of your research concerning the Intel drivers it really depends on which version of the driver/software you have and which model mobo you have, so I wanted to have you check out my specific setup so you could best recommend the absolute best performing setup for me. What will allow me to install the IRST drivers/software you see in the image above is if I move the HDD to SATA ports 1-3, then the Intel RAID controller will appear in the device manager with the HDD drive listed under it and I can install the driver/software, but if i don't need the IRST software/driver for best performance and the AHCI controller you see in my images provides all of the best performance features for my drives, under your advisement, I will keep all 3 drives under the SATA ACHI controller. ![]() My question is, is this IRST driver/software necessary for my system for best performance? From what I understand, the IRST driver/software seen in the image above is primarily a monitoring tool or for RAID setups, but I don't want to miss out on any performance features for either my SSD or HDD in not having it installed. ![]() ![]() One of these is just a zip file and I dont know how to install it (maybe you could help) and the other is an Intel Rapid Storage technology driver suggested for my system, but when I attempt to install IRST software it says "The setup program ended prematurely due to this platform is not supported error" and I only got this error after I moved my drives off the Intel STA RAID controller onto the SATA AHCI controller.
