@Fernando,
Many thanks for your time to get a proper driver final version for sSATA AHCI Controller DEV_8D62.
Yes, your new offered 64bit pure driver v6.1.2.1008 WHQL (final version) is now properly installed:


I have not used the "Have Disk" method, the offered folder with subfolder option was sufficient and automatically accepted without need to be aware of iaAHCIB.inf file presence.
The final driver installed is named IASTORB.sys
ANVIL score is quite acceptable for this low cost and old SSD (Kingston 120GB).
However the ANVIL score (7400) is lower than with v5.5.0.1334 (7710).
Thanks again for the resolution of the problem.

@Fernando
Do you have an ideaon how to fix this RstMwService.exe random crash under W10 64 v1903 Build 18362.207 ?

Thanks for the good workaround. I have downgraded from v17.5 branch to v17.2.11.1033 and does no longer get intempestive RstMwService.exe crash !

@Fernando
I have downgraded to Intel RST v17.2.12.1035 and now get no longer the random crash I did observed with v17.5 series !!

Hi all,
have a question & I think this is the best place to ask it.

Till this weekend my SuperMicro PDSME board worked just fine, but it died out. As it's hard to get, I've decided to put one "intel DP35DP" which I had for spare - https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/...ard-dp35dp.html .

So managed to get it working, transferred all (CPU, RAM, RAID HDD, etc.) to a new board. Booted Win10 & everything worked like a charm - except 1 thing, intel RST.

Now, I'm working with intel RST v9.6.0.1014 with intel ICH8R (DEV_2822).
My RAID in BIOS says that I use RAID1, but Win10 sees all drives & RAID drive. & intel RST says "status: Incompatible"

Am I working with correct version of driver? Any better solution?
Can I somehow switch intel RST to see my drive in RAID 10?
How can I do that? Suggestion needed.

Thank you,

Hi Guys,

I just found out the forum, was reading all I can and trying to figure out a driver I can use, but I am afraid I need some Help.

I recently installed (Win10 1903, clean Install) a SSD Kingston on my old notebook Lenovo G400S, i7-3612QM, Chipset Intel Ivy Bridge, HM76.
I checked the old update page for this model and there is a WIN 8.1 Intel Rapid Driver for it
AHCI is enable in BIOS and working, the system installed the Standard AHCI SATA controller.
My question is if I could install the INTEL AHCI driver, which one to pick up and if there will be any improvement with it.

Thanks in advance

Thanks Fernando for the reply and for the great forum.
Would be possible you suggest one driver I could start testing, from what I read, the v11.2.0.1006 WHQL is a safe bet, or there is another more recent/advanced I could try?

Thanks
Max

Hi Fernando, thank you very much.

I just did it, v13.2.8.1002 mod+signed installed and working well so far.

Best Regards
