Configuring Intel SRT using the Option ROM
The option to configure the Intel Smart Response Technology using the option ROM (OROM) user interface (UI) is
intended for service purposes only. This option is available only when an SSD/mSATA drive is used as cache.
The option to display the OROM prompt during POST is disabled by default. The OROM prompt is displayed only in the
following cases.
• When the RAID or Intel Smart Response Technology configuration differs from the last boot; for example, when the
mSATA drive is removed from the system.
• When the end user has enabled the OROM in the F10 BIOS Setup Utility.
The following procedure enables the user to configure Intel Smart Response Technology using the OROM.
1. The OROM UI can be enabled through the BIOS F10 Setup Utility. The following image displays the OROM UI item in
the BIOS Setup Utility (the actual BIOS display may vary depending on platform). NOTE: The SATA emulation mode
must be set to RAID or RAID+AHCI.
2. After the system boots, when the OROM GUI displays, press CTRL+I .
3. The following image displays the CTRL–I instruction in the OROM GUI.
