    I ran the program and it said it installed, but I have a feeling it didn't. I had the Device Manager open and none of the entries blinked. The program also said it completed successfully but it was so fast It didn't seem like anything got updated. O well...

    1.) what is this driver?
    2.) is it worth updating?

    Not sure if this info helps, but the PC chipped to me with Vista stock. I installed Windows 7 when it came out.

    That's mean you'll need 7 drivers....but those v9.6.0.1014 are only the newest.

    If you feel running allright, then don't change.

    Is that not already linked?

    Go there and choose "Select your Operating System", the Os 7 x64 (i saw in your specs) then click "Drivers" and at the bottom on Intel Rapid Storage Technology v9.6.0.1014...

    PS: Don't take the F6 install......
