    I don't think you need to do anything to configure it. Windows 8 knows how to use it the right way.
    You can download AS SSD and check if it's all OK and green in the top left part of the main window.

    Oh, sorry, this SSD is indeed used for caching, I thought you had a single drive in the laptop, just the SSD.
    To make the SSD cache work properly, you need to install Lenovo Express Cache software and remove all partitions from the SSD. All information is available here:
