If you want to manage the drivers (remove old/unused drivers for example) that you have in your Windows DriverStore
Use Driver Store Explorer (Right click on "Rapr.exe" > Run as administrator).

If you want better interrupts delivery latency
Enable MSI (Message Signaled-based Interrupts) mode on all your supported devices (see the column "supported modes") with
MSI Mode Utility (Right click on "MSI_Mode_Utility_v3.exe" > Run as administrator).

Hi, Just wondering because i'm new here. Are the drivers in this post considered beta drivers or something? Because I own a Strix z490-E and on the support page for my motherboard the driver versions for ME and chipset are much older than the ones in this post (the ME is even labeled "beta" on the support page since May). Would you recommend to use these ones instead because they are more recent?

Hi all, is there a problem if installing Intel SATA AHCI-RAID Drivers : 4xx : 18.30.0.1135 on a 3xx chipset motherboard? instead of 17.9.4.1017?

Drivers - 4xx : 18.30.0.1135 WHQL [17/07/2020]
Drivers - 3xx : 17.9.4.1017 WHQL [24/07/2020]

I ask because I have installed v18.30.0.1135 on my maximus XI Extreme Z390 motherboard and it's all running OK. I haven't run any SSD benchmarks with both versions so I don't know if there is any disadvantage of using v18 instead of v17.

I guess I could ask win-raid forum for there might be someone there who knows, in case there's nobody here who can shed some light on this subject. TIA for any input, folks.

You need to install the 17.9.4 drivers because they are for the z390 chipset, 18.30 drivers are for the z490 chipset.

Hi,

Motherboards with Intel 3xx series chipsets are not compatible with 18.30.x drivers branch and more recent except for motherboards with some Intel 3xx series chipsets whose support is currently maintained. This is why the all Intel 3xx series chipsets is not marked as compatible with 18.30.x drivers and more recent.

Note : I already see questions arrived "which is the most optimal then ?", the most optimal is to respect what there is written on the first post of this thread, so, if you don't have motherboard with Intel 3xx series chipset, don't use the 17.8.x drivers branch and more recent, if you don't have motherboard with Intel 4xx series chipset, don't use the 18.30.x drivers branch and more recent.

Did you make a mistake in the "Note" section with the Chipset versions?
