So, in case that I'm not going to use RAID on my system at this moment and I'm installing only AHCI drivers I should *always* go for the latest version? For example, 14.8.16.1063 at this moment for my X99 platform.

Yes, but these v14 platform RST(e) drivers are only usable for the first 6 Intel SATA ports of your mainboard.

Zitat von Lex im Beitrag #1695
Do I understand correctly that:
a) my first SATA controller (RAID/AHCI) module is v14.8.0.2377
b) my second SATA controller (AHCI/IDE only, no RAID) module is v13.1.0.2126?

Probably yes, but the Intel RAID ROM v13.1.0.2126 will never be used, because your on-board Intel sSATA Controller (responsable for the ports 7-10) cannot be run in RAID mode.

Zitat von Lex im Beitrag #1695
If (at some time in future) I change my mind and set up a RAID, should I still use RAID Drivers & Software Set v14.8.16.1063?

Yes, unless there are newer Intel RAID drivers available, which belong to the v14 platform.

Hi,
Using Native Win 10 build 1709 drivers, 13.44.0.1026.
Need software set package/console that will work with these native drivers, where to find and how to install.
Thank you in advance
Syrob

@syrob:
There is no RST Software available, which 100% matches the in-box Intel RAID drivers v13.44.0.1026.
The closest is the Intel RST Software v13.2.8.1002. You can find download links to the package, which contains just the original Software without any drivers, within the start post of >this< thread.
Another possibility is to install the complete Intel RST Drivers & Software Set v13.2.8.1002 WHQL, which you can get >here<.
Unfortunately I cannot recommend anything more specific, because your post doesn't contain any information regarding the chipset of your mainboard.

Has anybody tried the RST 15.7.6.1027 driver? Results or experiences?

I tried it on my Z77 RAID 0 system and upon reboot Windows could not come back up and it went through the repair procedure. No other driver from any RST series has caused that. This was the first issue I ever encountered.

@D2theZ:
Although the related drivers are installable (due to the universal external DeviceID DEV_2822), your Z77 RAID system is not supported by the Intel RST(e) drivers, which belong to the v14 or v15 platform.

You can try that, but it is no problem to return manually to the in-box driver at any time.
Anyway I recommend to update the Intel RAID ROM module of your mainboard BIOS to an RST platform version (minimum: v10.1.0.1008, better: v11.2.0.1527).

Update of the start post
Changelog:

new: 32/64bit Intel RST(e) drivers v16.0.1.1008 for Win8-10 dated 12/13/2017
new: Intel RST(e) Drivers & Software Set v16.0.1.1008 dated 12/17/2017

Notes:

The above mentioned drivers are digitally signed by Intel (no WHQL stamp yet) and usable with all Windows Operating Systems from Win8 up. Only Intel 100-Series/C230 Chipsets, 200-Series Chipsets, X299 Chipsets and other Systems with an Intel Skylake or KabyLake CPU are natively supported by these drivers.
Thanks to Fdrsoft resp.Station-Drivers for the source package.

Very soon I will install them onto my Z170 system and report here about my first impression.
Update:
Meanwhile I have installed the complete Intel RST(e) Drivers & Software Set (just for testing purposes) and didn't find anything to criticize.
Here are some pictures:

Good luck with these new drivers!

I wanted to try the v16.0.1.1008 driver but I can't install it. It ends with the info, the system is already up to date. I'm wondering. The v16 beta worked.
My system is Windows 7 64bit on an Asus H170-Pro (C230/100-series) (Skylake Intel).

@Bugger Vance:
Maybe you are currently running a newer or WHQL certified AHCI driver.
Nevertheless you will be able to get the v16.0.1.1008 driver manually installed, if you force the installation by using the "Let me pick..." > "Have Disk" option.

unfortunately it's still not working. I'm getting the message: "Im angegebenen Ordner befindet sich kein kompatibler Softwaretreiber für das Gerät".
I compared the files with the ones of the latest v15 driver. The v16 driver is missing iaStorF.sys file.

This means, that it only will work with Win8/8.1/10.
Which OS are you running and which DeviceID has your on-board Intel SATA AHCI Controller?

Ok, this explains everything.
Thanks for your report and interesting find, that the Intel RST v16 platform drivers natively do not support Windows 7 (and even older Windows Operating Systems).
Due to your test result I have now corrected the related compatibility descriptions within the start post and >this< post.
