@kamiccolo,

Does RST console recognize the rom module? Efi or otherwise??

Your lucky if so because I could not get it to work! Please post a link to the rom module?

Thank you

@Kamiccolo:
Maybe you misunderstood my advice to try the latest Intel RAID module of the v15.5 series. Since you are obviously not satisfied with the performance of your current Intel RAID driver/BIOS module combo v14.8 and the option to switch to the best performing, but very old combo v11.2 may be too problematic with your modern chipset, I gave you the tip to try a v15.5 combo, which gave my Z170 RAID0 system outstanding benchmark scores. Since I don't have an X99 chipset system, I cannot guarantee, that this combo will be accepted by the system BIOS modules of your mainboard.

Mabe fernado can give us some insight on how we are suppose to flash it without a header.

It is very easy, if you have the "pure" *.efi file (you can find it >here<).
Just put it into the UBU subfolder Modules\IRST\User. Then run the UBU tool and when you are going to update the Intel RAID modules, UBU will offer you the option to update/downgrade to the demanded Intel EFI RaidDriver version, which you had previously put into the "User" subfolder.
Here is the related picture:

So far if your going with 15.1 stay with 14.8 software.

It is not a good idea to use an RST driver or software, which belongs to a lower platform (here: v14) than the related Intel RAID BIOS module (here: v15). Reason: Intel RST drivers are regarding the Intel RAID BIOS module backwards compatible, but not upwards).

??? ... I don't know any * AHCI OROM by Phoenix.

Phoenix made some BIOS like Award, but aimed for HighEnd.

On my old E759 X58 bios there certainly is one as I looked into the rom module in a hex editor and it said 'Phoenix AHCI Rom'! Further research on Evga forums advised people ignore it as may be compatible with Intel but not verified and told use Raid rom instead.

Do you have a BIOS file ... or Link to manufacturer?

I found EVGA 141-BL-E759 X58 SLI Classified S.1336 Mainboard BIOS v82 + v83 ... and inside "sataorom.bin".
It's an Intel(R) RAID for SATA - v10.5.0.744 ... and could not find any "Phoenix".

But I found "Award". Maybe you confound it with the info from CBROM -> "(C) Phoenix Technologies 2001-2008"?

So you could take for AHCI: >Intel RST RAID ROM v11.2.0.1527<
or for RAID0 with TRIM: >"Universally TRIM modified" Intel RST RAID ROM v11.2.0.1527 with TRIM in RAID0 support<

... and insert it into the BIOS-file. Good luck !!

I used "CBROM198 e759183.bin /BIOSF2 Extract" which gave me the Phoenix AHCI module. Here it is: http://www.mediafire.com/file/w68p3vz53c...H_P10710_ROM.7z.

I'm using the Trim modified 12.9. I have seen others on Evga's site go up to 15.x raid rom which is crazy stupid if you ask me.

Would have posted sooner but Windows Update took over my machine for a half hour!!!

??? ... there is no AHCI OROM by Phoenix.

This is not true.
Here is the proof:

Within my big BIOS modules collection I found 7 different Phoenix AHCI Option ROM modules (3 for Intel chipset system, 3 for AMD chipset systems and 1 for unknown chipset). The latest is dated 08/13/2008.

Would you have a later newer release in your collection??

Thank you

Thanx Fernando for correction. I've edited it.
Now you have the 8th. AHCI OROM by Phoenix.

Hello Fernando!
It's the latest I know. And yes, it's not really "actual" or "new".

In that way I like AMI more. And AMI has GUI and seems to be more easy to use.
But this is all offtopic - I know.

Hi Fernando,

I modded Marvell 91xx AHCI/RAID ROM v1.0.0.1038 for DEV_9123 correcting the hex values to match for DEV_9125 including other Hex values. Can you or Sonix please verify its correct and add to the list:
