Hello guy i have a ROG and i got 2 diks a normal disk of 2TB and other SSd disk with 22GB, but i dont have access to the SSD .... I can i do to use that disk?
@dariomgsilva - What you got there is a "cache" partition, I.E an SSD that its original use is to be used as a cache partition for the OS, to speed its boot time ( after reboot/sleep ) & daily activity.
"Windows 10" natively does not supports it, as windows 8 did ( through intel driver )
To read a bit about
"what is a cache drive" GO HEREif one runs the full OS on an ssd, one don't need another caching drive.
As I found that ppl
reports success on installing intel Rapid Storage Driver on Win 10, I also direct you to an
"how to install & config" guide for this featureyou might also want to
look at the ROG old G55VW manual, as it contains also an installation guide for intel rapid storage
Please enter these links, and read them carefully.
Please note that this method of installation is a tweak/"hack" as intel did not release official windows 10 rapid storage driver.You can check the current partition "type" using CMD &
MBRWiz64.exe ( get it from here ).
( I presume you're on x64 windows ) type in CMD:
MBRWiz64.exe /listP.S - there is no obligation to use that "ssd cache" drive as "ssd cache" for windows.
On 22GB ssd you can format it as NTFS and use it as a partition for game installation place ( thus getting faster game boot times ) or you can also
move there the "swapfiles" & "pagefiles" to get a faster OS in general ( it should in theory to speed the os, dunno how much ).
You can also format this space as EXT v4 to install on that space a linux distro, like famous ubuntu or android.
note, that dualboot procedure, requires A LOT OF READING.
