not sure if i should install 11.2 RST---will try and post what it gives
Great job Bill, been waiting to see how you did with them. Now I got to resist picking up a z87 mobo, dam. Thanks again bud... :clap:
the first benchmark shows that write caching is not enabled look at the 4k write compared to the second bench. I'm not sure if the iastorF affects anything but it has been my experience that it does not. Uninstall 12.7 and install 11.2 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Det...?DwnldID=21408
use the exe so you have the rst control panel
look at the system report in rst control panel.
did you see this article? http://www.rwlabs.com/article.php?id=836Quote:

Your Device Manager pictures show a typical issue, which may happen, when the user is downgrading from any Intel RST(e) drivers v11.5 or higher (containing an additional SCSI filter driver iaStorF.sys) to any "classical" Intel RST driver using just the iaStor.sys.
Bug: The iaStorF entries of the Registry will not be deleted by the uninstall procedure.
Bad consequence: The performance will drop, because the absolutely unneeded SCSI filter driver iaStorF.sys is still active.
For more informations you may read the "Switching from RST to RST(e) driversand vice versa" chapter within the start post of >this< thread. There you will find a link to the solution of the problem as well.
My experience is that even though Ive never used RST(e) I still have have iastorf:Quote:

And I have used your procedure to remove it, which resulted in zero performance gain. I thoroughly tested to see if there was a difference and there was not. The thing is iastorf is there whether or not you have ever used an RST(e) driver. I have not.
Look at the rst control panel:

I believe this is correct. I apologize if I'm misunderstanding you.
Thanks Fernando and B Gates for the great help, i read your post Fernando but it send me to a link saying the same, i actually downgraded from 12.7 to 11.2 and YES i have that problem, so what i should do ? uninstall 11.2 then let windows use the native ones and delete files manually from both windows and registry ?Quote:

Reason: Win8 and Win8.1 do support the UNMAP command, whereas Win7 doesn't do it. The TRIM in RAID0 feature requires the UNMAP command to let TRIM pass the Intel SATA RAID Controller into the RAIDed SSDs.
Enter the Registry and delete the iaStorF entry as written by Squall Leonhart. Don't try to delete the iaStorF.sys from within the Windows\System32\Drivers directory! You will get a BSOD while trying to reboot after having done that.Quote:
