Thanks to Pacman for the source files. These EFI RaidDriver modules are designed for the upcoming v6 platform Intel RSTe drivers. I do not really recommend to insert them into the BIOS unless the v6 platform Intel RSTe RAID drivers are available.

@tistou77 : If the Intel RST EFI “RaidDriver” v17.0.0.3720 would have been already available, Pacman would have posted the related EFI module. We obviously have to wait until someone has found, extracted and posted it.
Note: This works with my Z390 motherboard, but it had GOP 1082 in latest BIOS, also VBT 2.21, I am not sure if it needs this VBT version. It has the same changed format as 1082.
I have a suspicion that version 1082 and higher is compiled for CFL i9. Accordingly, it is possible that the corresponding settings have been made in VBT.
Any reason these EFI modules are not listed in the first post?
Yes, the simple reason is, that I was far away from home at that time in May 2018. So I obviously missed Pacman’s post regarding the RSTe RaidDriver v5.4.0.1039 modules.
@all: Update of the start post Changelog:
added: “pure” Intel RSTe EFI SATA “RaidDriver” v5.4.0.1039 (without header) for DEV_2826 Intel SATA RAID Controllers
added: “pure” Intel RSTe EFI sSATA “RaidDriver” v5.4.0.1039 (without header) for DEV_2827 Intel sSATA RAID Controllers Thanks to Pacman for the source files
added: “pure” Intel RSTe EFI SATA “RaidDriver” v6.0.0.1024 (without header) for DEV_2826 Intel SATA RAID Controllers
added: “pure” Intel RSTe EFI sSATA “RaidDriver” v6.0.0.1024 (without header) for DEV_2827 Intel sSATA RAID Controllers Thanks to plutomaniac for the source files.

new: “pure” Intel RST EFI “RaidDriver” v17.0.0.3720 without header (for DEV_2822 Intel SATA RAID Controllers)
Notes: The Intel RST RAID ROM/EFI RaidDriver BIOS modules from the v17 platform have been designed for Intel 300-Series Chipsets and should only be used in combination with an Intel RST v17 platform RAID driver. It has to be tested, whether this module supports 100-/200-Series Chipset RAID systems. Thanks to Pacman for the source FFS file.
Good luck with the updated Intel EFI RAID module! Dieter (alias Fernando)
Update: Found > this < thread explaining the issue is an Asus BIOS bug on P8Z68V series motherboards. I’ve emailed Asus regarding the issue. I’ll update this post if I have any luck with them.
Hey, thanks for the guide. I’m not using RAID, but I’ve inserted the GOP drivers for SNB and IVB into my BIOS which did not contain any previous GOP drivers. When I try to boot with CSM disabled and using my dedicated GPU, it fails to post. (UEFI boot does work with the iGPU and if I turn CSM on I can use my dedicated GPU). Is there anyway to know if the GOP drivers were installed successfully? They show up in the BIOS in MMTOOL and UEFI BIOS updater. Below are some of my PC specs and things I’ve tried:
Windows 10 pro 64bit installed with UEFI (CSM was disabled on install and disk shows it’s GPT) Mobo - Asus P8Z68-V-PRO/1st Gen with: BIOS 3603 Upgraded VBIOS 2124 → 2132 (GPU-Z confirms this) GOP drivers - EFI GOP Driver IvyBridge - 3.0.1030 and EFI GOP Driver SandyBridge - 2.0.1024 (Inserted compressed into BIOS using MMTOOL 4.50.0.23) Inserted three NVMe modules from a ASUS Z97 PRO into BIOS (would like to use a NVMe PCIe drive soon)
new: “pure” Intel RST EFI “RaidDriver” v17.0.1.0 without header (for DEV_2822 Intel SATA RAID Controllers)

@tistou77 : According to the HardwareIDs the v17 platform Intel RST RAID BIOS modules should be compatible with X299 chipset systems, but this doesn’t automaticly mean, that they will be flashable and perfectly work with your specific mainboard BIOS. If I were you, I would stick with the Intel RAID BIOS module(s) of the same RST platform, which is within the latest original BIOS.
@Fernando Ok thanks the v17 drivers work better on X299 (but I do not use them, only NVMe disk and my SATA burner does not work anymore if I install them)
I noticed that the last EFI module is indicated RST 17.0.1.0 in UBU, is it normal ?
