Hello guys and girls, how are you?

I've found Win-Raid a couple of hours ago (this forum is amazing!) and I'm looking to update some firmwares such as BIOS and other PCI components (I already updated the Intel ME's firmware) as well as solve a problem with my WiFi + Bluetooth module.
Anyway... reading carefully how UFU works, I followed the steps from this thread, but, unfortunately, it scans for my BIOS and throws me the message: "InsydeH20 BIOS not supported".

In fact, when I extract the .exe file, it has 4 different .bin files : http://i.imgur.com/tVwgizK.png (three with the size of 8.963kb and the last one with the size of 5.602kb). Running the tools "InsydeFlash.exe" and using the option to copy the BIOS files, it generates 4 new files (from what I read, decrypted) with approximately the same size: http://i.imgur.com/8zyKDRv.png

Running other tools, such as UEFITool 0.21.5, it seems to me that the "right file" is the first one (well, at least it gives me a more consistent message. The other files has a "non-UEFI data found in volume's free space").

My question is: how do I know, for sure, which is the right file for BIOS editing? Is there a way to join all 4 into 1 file or it is normal this structure? My laptop is an HP Pavilion 15-n274ca TouchSmart Notebook PC with BIOS version F.70.

Thank you for your help and attention!


Best Regards,

If it's going to take a bit to work out the details of the alternative, would you consider putting the link back with just the directories of up-to-date modules?

Please remember: Once upon a time there has been no UBU tool at all!
So be patient and wait for a new UBU tool, which will work without any AMI tool, or update the BIOS modules manually by using CodeRush's UEFITool.

Forgive me if this has been answered already, I searched and came up with no answers....

When I update the raid module in UBU I loose the Dynamic Storage Accelerator option in the Intel RST tool. If I flash the factory BIOS the option returns.
With both BIOS's I have the Dynamic Storage Accelerator option enabled in the BIOS. What would cause me to loose this option?
(screenshots attached of the option that disappears with UBU updated modules)

The RST version installed is 15.2.0.1020. Windows driver is 15.2.0.1020.
Factory OROM and EFI version is 13.5.0.2164, With UBU I've updated both to 15.1.0.2545.

Given that driver version 15.2.0.1020 shows the Dynamic Storage Accelerator option when paired with 13.5.0.2164, you would think it still be there when the same driver is paired with 15.1.0.2545. New driver, older OROM. As soon as I flash the new BIOS with the new OROM the option disappears.

I assume your saying that I need to find driver/RST version 15.1.0.2543, if that is true where can I find this?

Z97
I assumed that UBU scans the BIOS can tell the chipset and if not supported hide the unsupported versions.

Going back to one of your post I see that you recommend the v13 for the 9 series...

The results of my various benchmark comparison tests done with my Z97 RAID system (look >here<) verify, that not even the v14 platform Intel RST drivers are the best choice for a 9-Series Chipset system running in RAID mode. By the way: I got rather similar results with my new Z170 Chipset system while running in RAID mode. The Intel RST(e) driver v13.2.4.1000 was much better performant than all tested v14 and v15 ones and I am pretty sure, that the old "classical" Intel RST driver v11.2.0.1006 is still the absolutely best Intel RAID driver even for the latest chipsets (unfortunately Microsoft and the manufacturers of the mainboards prevent its usage with modern Intel systems).

Does that still hold true, or do you think there is any benefit to going to v14?
Also on the topic are there any other module versions to stay away from on the 9-Series?
