RAPID mode Limitations

1)RAPID mode accelerates only one SSD even though user has several Samsung SSDs (860 EVO, 860 PRO, 850 PRO, 850 EVO, 850, 750 EVO, 840 EVO, and 840 PRO regardless of form factor).

2)If there are two identical SSDs connected, RAPID mode may accelerate the incorrect SSD.

3)RAID Mode sets is not supported as an accelerated drive.

4)After uninstalling RAPID mode, if the system is restored to a prior state in which RAPID mode was installed, RAPID mode will be started in a disabled state.

5)NVIDIA Storage controller is not supported.

6)During RAPID mode Enable/Disable operation: Do not disconnect the target SSD, Do not kill the application.

7)If fast startup is enabled on windows 8, 8.1 and 10 machines, RAPID mode enable/disable requires system restart. Shutdown followed by turning-on the power will not activate RAPID mode enable/disable. By default fast startup is enabled.

8)Flush command of operating system and/or application may cause variation in performance when RAPID mode is enabled.

9)Sometimes on AMD PC with AMD and ASMedia storage controllers it was

found that the IOs takes a longer time to complete. In such cases if Rapid was enabled, it may get automatically disabled due to such IO errors. It may display "Rapid is in inactive state". User has to reboot the PC to enable the Rapid back.

10)If multiple iterations of Read and Write are performed, RAPID mode may become inactive due to system internal errors on some of the AMD / ASMedia Controller or Driver.

11)RAPID mode can't be guaranteed on the target SSD with non-NTFS file system.

12)If user delete some files on RAPID folder, RAPID may not be uninstalled properly.
