Hi there guys, I just got a Samsung 850 EVO 500GB to get rid of an old RAID5 of 3x 320GB HDDs.
I was wondering what is the best combo of EFI Sata driver and RST version for my system, can you suggest one?
I have a Rampage IV Extreme which is an X79 Mobo, should I go with RSTe 3.8 or RST 12.x or 13.x?
For now I will use the system in AHCI mode until my second 850 EVO arrives...

Thanks in advance for your suggestions :D

If you can choose between RSTe and RST mode RAID utilisation, I would insert the RST v12.9.0.2006 Intel RAID ROM/EFI modules into the BIOS.

My current System:
MB: ASRock X570 Pro4, CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600, System Drive: 500 GB Samsung 980 Pro, Graphics: Sapphire Radeon RX570, OS: Win10 x64 Pro

Hi Fernando, thanks for your reply.
I can do it for sure, I've been using UBU from a long time now.. I'll go with RST 12.9.0.2006 then, thanks again :)
