    Just switch to solid state drive, do I need to install Intel Rapid Response Technology to optimize SSD's performance ?

    Hi Michelle,

    Thx for the guidance.

    FYI, I have the installed the newest RST, ie. Newest WHQL as quoted - v11.0.0.1032

    Regarding the ACHI driver, checked the Device Manager; SATA ACHI controller driver is also v11.0.0.1032.

    Furthermore the SSD optimization guide is useful.
