• The SSD used for Intel® Rapid Start and Intel® Smart Response is not allowed for creating RAID.
•Due to OS behavior, Intel® Rapid Start Technology does not work efficiently with over
4GB system memory under Windows® 7
•Only Intel® internal SATA ports (gray and blue) support Intel® 2012 Desktop responsiveness technologies.
•The performance of Intel® Smart Response Technology and Intel® Rapid Storage Technology vary with the installed SSD.
