Storage Technology application (after installing all necessary drivers in the correct
order) to support your RAID/Intel® Optane™ system or SATA drive if set up in
AHCI mode in the BIOS (see “SATA Mode (Advanced Menu)” on page 5 - 14).

support PCIe SSDs.
• AHCI mode with the
IRST driver installed
does not support
PCIe SSDs.
