My next SSD question, Intel's ISRT isn't working

[TJones2]

I'm having the same issue as this person, I also have RAID setup in bios and installed the RAID drivers during Windows 7 installation:

I open up the Intel Rapid Storage Technology program.
I click the Accelerate tab.
I go down to the "Enable acceleration" link and click it.
It ask me for my settings, I select them. (Fairly simple with one SSD and one HDD.)
-I chose Full disk and Maximized mode in case anyone is curious. I also tried all the combinations to see if it would work any other way.
I then click the "OK" button.

This is where the issue is.

It brings me back to the Accelerate tab saying:
Accelerated device: None Select device
Acceleration mode: None

BUT, the SSD is cached.

The little bit of trouble shooting I attempted was:
-Restart the computer (obvi).
-Reinstall the Intel Rapid Storage Technology program.

Any ideas how to fix it?

Where is your HDD ?
What port is it attached to ?

 

[TJones2]

Where is your HDD ? - port 0
SSD is port 2

I'd tried moving them around to different ports, no difference.

What do you see when you click on: Accelerated device none " select device " ?

The hard drive. I set to Max, press okay, and zipo. I'm back where I started.

Have you tried with a different drive, as mentioned in the other thread ?

Nope. You mean hard drive? I'd have to reinstall...like to avoid that.

 

[Diogenes2]

Just add it as a 2nd drive and see if SRT will cache it..

The thread you referenced, talks about some drives not working

 

[TJones2]

There's no other drive I can use.

What is your mobo?
You may have to go back from the start, meaning enable RAID and enable RST (in windows).
Make sure you use the latest Intel driver/utility.

Did that the last time around. I'm probably going to give up till I need to reinstall.
