4 Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST)
The IRST software package enables and enhances high-performance Serial
ATA (SATA) and SATA RAID capabilities for supported operating systems. The
IRST software package provides an added protection against data loss in the
event of a hard drive failure.
NOTE: The following conditions must be met before you can install
IRST on your computer.
• Your computer has a RAID I/O controller hub (ICH). If your
computer does not have a RAID ICH you cannot install IRST unless a
third-party RAID controller card is installed.
• Your RAID controller is enabled by default.
CAUTION: If a SATA hard drive is already installed,
enabling the RAID controller might cause your computer
to display a blue screen and an error code followed by a system
reboot. To enable RAID, reinstall the operating system.
