I have a 240GB SSD with Windows 7 installed. It also has an unallocated 64GB partition, which I reserved to use Intel Smart Response Technology.
I would like to accelerate a mechanical drive that is solely reserved for data.
SATA is set to RAID (and was so before I installed Windows) and both disks are connected to the Intel controller. However in the Intel Rapid Storage Technology utility, I only get the option to create a RAID.
From prior reading, what I want to do appears to be possible.
Please can someone with experience of using their SSD as both a boot drive and cache tell me what I am doing wrong?
For clarity - I am not trying to accelerate a mechanical drive that has the OS installed on it.
