Easy at it may be with some trial and error is just not necessary. The board in question I did not update the bios in over 5 years and only recently did in order to get trim with a SSD, otherwise I would have let it remain where it was because it worked.
I don't foresee myself doing any bios modification in the near future.
Somebody already modified said bios, it worked and that is all I really was looking for.

The updated bios was a request at tweaktown forums for the board in question and somebody who is a long time contributor took up the request and added full documentation.
Feedback has been 100% so I trust it was done right or there would be complaints.
I myself am not having any issues.
As I recall you modify bios's here and post them, correct?

The only question I had is between the two if I am should have went with the 11.5 or the 12.7. I chose the 12 series OROM and I am sure it will work just fine just as 11.5 would as well.

ICH10R chipset
BIOS Raid ROM: Intel Matrix Storage Manager v8.0.0.1038
SATA Controller set as RAID mode but SSD is not a member in any array (i.e. running independently as non-member disk)

Using Asus P5Q Mainboard

May I ask if TRIM is running/ enabled in such situation if a SSD is plugged?

Thanks~

(If modded BIOS is needed, I'm not sure about the BIOS chip size is large enough or not for modding intel RST ROM into it...)

But do I need to update the intel raid rom in bios?

There is no need to update the Intel RAID ROM regarding the TRIM activity within your single SSD.
Question: Why did you set the Intel SATA ports to "RAID" and not to "AHCI" mode?
This doesn't make sense for me, because you obviously haven't created a RAID array.
