    Know where to get the release notes for RST 10.6.xxx? I checked the package, Intel site, and web but found nothing. Just bought an OCZ Vertex 2. The toolbox has major compatibility issues with RST 10.xxx per OCZ site. There's a hint that 10.6 may have resolved these issues but the print is in another language which I can't translate (image).

    Thanks

    Update: Found the ReadMe inside the F6 install directory, but had no reference to what's new, only:

    For Intel RST version 10.6.0.1002, why is size of zip (0.3 MB) so much smaller than the exe (11 MB)? I do not suppose that it is all due to Intel Control Center in exe version.

    The ZIP files only contain either the 32-bit or 64-bit drivers, the EXE file contains all the drivers plus the installer routine that determines the OS and what to install.

    I do not understand, I installed Intel rapid st.. Version: 10.6.0.1022 which was dated in June.
    But when I look in device manager it says 10.6.0.1002 (2011-05-20)

    It is the right version of the driver, Rapid Storage 10.6.0.1022 contains 10.6.0.1002 of the AHCI/RAID driver. It's also stated in their readme.

    Hi Michelle,
    Can you advise on where to get the drivers from if I was load during install of the OS (F6) as the download from Intel is an executable for after the OS is installed.
