Re: Matrix Storage Manager- Win 10 update - driver failed to load
I am experiencing the exact same scenario as the OP, except for my chip set being ICH10r with a quad core i7 CPU. I am not certain whether my RAID1 is still working, or not, or whether the problem is...

Yes! I can confirm. I disabled raid and switched to AHCI to see what driver W10 would install. It was the same 2006 driver it installed. Basically, people using raid who clean install W10 might get in...

Yeah, it doesn't matter if you use Raid or AHCI if you install RST over 12.9. It will start to click.

What process or program is actually causing the HDD accesses? Windows 10 task manager should also show this.

The initial boot page now reports that my raid 1 system is normal so I assume that the verification process has run. I was prompted to action disk repair at win 10 boot, which took a very long time so...

6-Disk RAID-10 using Z87 Chipset?
I'm trying to find out if 6-disk RAID-10 is supported by the Z87 chipset (or whatever controls the RAID options) with RST. I've found topics on these forums with users saying it is supported, that it...

I've just come across this thread after extensively googling why my just-upgraded-from-Win7-to-Win10 machine is clicking all the time. I have an MSI Gaming 5 Z97 chipset mobo with Win 10 installed on a...

So even AHCI causes trouble for some, what a mess. Try installing the 12.9 driver. The creator of this thread had a Z97 motherboard and it works for him. This should fix your problem and there is no...

Re: Not working: Write back cache, Windows 10 (RAID0)
Write back isn't worth it anymore. In Windows 7, on my Intel 535, I've had 1000/1100 MB/s write/read. In Windows 8, it went a bit down. In Windows 10, it's not worth enabling it. I do have UPS, and it...

As krkan responded 12.9 should work just fine, with no performance loss. That's really also in my opinion the best solution right now. But I want to add that If the clicking persists after installing...

Thanks Gelmor. I'm afraid I've no idea what the original version was on first start-up of Win 10 after the upgrade from Win 7. My first attempt to fix was to install the very latest (AFAIK)...

Bjorn - it seems to me like 520 are heavily superior towards 535, speed-wise, not iOPs wise. Anyway, Intel is missing some badass m.2 SSD, or at least SATA Express SSD drives :/...
