Samsung EVO 840 SSD and Intel Rapid Start
Hey all,
I have the Samsung EVO 840 SSD (500GB) as my Windows 7 x64 Pro boot drive and read somewhere on the internet that Samsung recommend that Intel Rapid Start is turned off not installed. I don't recall reading this in the documentation that came with the SSD though.
I have Intel Rapid Start installed on my PC as it came with the ASUS Maximus Hero VI Motherboard driver/utilities CD.
I also have two other drives in my system, a 256GB Sandisk and a 1.5TB 7200rpm HDD. All three are connected to the Intel 6Gb connectors on the mother board.
Should I be uninstalling Intel Rapid Start? Does it make a difference? I should point out that I never let the system sleep or hibernate. I always power down completely.
Thanks.
