@Fernando
On a Windows 10 system with Samsung 980 Pro drives, the Intel RST/RSTe drivers are not needed.
And you need to install the Intel NVMe Driver v5.3.0.1005 WHQL drivers.
Sorry for asking again, translation difficulties. Is everything correct?

I would like to clarify that for Intel RST(e) v13 the latest driver is Intel Rapid Storage Technology Version 13.6.3.1001 WHQL

Got it. Thanks.

Intel Rapid Storage Technology enterprise & VROC Drivers Version 8.0.0.2752 WHQL

First, thanks to Fernando for helping recover my account.

Quick question ... on my Z170 system, I used the RSTe line of drivers (6.3) and previously the 4 series on my board in AHCI mode. I used these because with the normal RST drivers I would have excessive load/unload cycles/chirping on my HDD's. I take it because they are enterprise drivers the power profiles were different.

I recently built a new B660 board that comes with the 19 series RST drivers. In AHCI mode, there is no driver available from Intel, only the in-box Windows 11 driver. This in box driver causes the excessive load/unload cycles/chirping. Switching to VMD and using the RST 19 driver, the issue persist. I also disabled LPM in the Intel CP and still have the issue on 1 of my drives.

I've checked out the latest VROC drivers and they currently do not support either device (AHCI or VMD) for my system.

Is there any hope that they will eventually add support?

And before anyone ask, excessive hard parking is dozens of head parking events per hour. I've had these drives for 5 years and only around 3,500 head parks due to using the good RSTe drivers the past 5 years. Also, yes, I set the HDD to power off never in Advanced Power Profiles.

Thanks!
