new: Intel RST Drivers & Software Set v16.7.0.1009 dated 07/10/2018
These drivers are digitally signed by Intel (no WHQL stamp yet) and usable with Win8/8.1 and Win10. Only the latest Intel Chipsets from 100-Series up (incl. X299) are natively supported by these drivers. Thanks to Station-Drivers for the source package.
new: Intel RST Drivers & Software Set v16.5.4.1032 WHQL for Win8-10 dated 07/24/2018
Only Intel chipsets from 100-Series up and X299 are natively supported by these drivers. Thanks to Station-Drivers resp. Pacman for the source package.
Little Hint: ASRock Z270 Taichi, RST EFI/OROM modded to 16.7 Works flawless with 16.5.4 drivers, but integrating/installing 16.7.0 drivers leads to reboot-loop (repairing windows). Maybe because of missing WHQL-Stamp.
The 64bit driver is now WHQL certified, the 32bit driver still just digitally signed by Intel. Both are usable with Win8/8.1 and Win10. Only the latest Intel Chipsets from 100-Series up (incl. X299) are natively supported by these drivers. Thanks to Pacman resp. Station-Drivers for the source package.
@Pacman Do you have RSTCLI for RST Driver version 15.2.16.1060? Also would Intel ‘SRT’ (Smart Response Technology) work with these drivers for a PCI-E SSD?
Ehmm, I don’t remember anymore how to install this package
I’m an AHCI user only (cpu i5-8500, intel chipset 360 and only one sata ssd drive, win10 education N x64 updated) and I downloaded the right package (i guess) for me: “64bit Intel RST AHCI & RAID driver v16.5.4.1032 WHQL.rar” ('cause I don’t need any IRST Software): now, right click on iaAHCIC.inf (and then “Install”) only or also on all the others (iaStorAC.inf, iaStorSW.inf, iaStorSwExt.inf)?
The first option is the correct one. The file named iaAHCIC.inf contains all needed instructions to get the related Intel AHCI driver properly installed. All other *.inf files are useless for you, because your Intel SATA Controller is running in AHCI mode and you don’t want to install any Intel RST Software.

Only Intel chipsets from 100-Series and from X299 up are natively supported by these drivers. Thanks to Station-Drivers resp. Pacman for the source package.
Only Intel chipsets from 100-Series and from X299 up are natively supported by these drivers. The 32bit driver and the complete Drivers & Software Set v16.7.1.1012 are not yet available. Thanks to Station-Drivers for the source package and to westlake for the hint.
new: Intel RST Drivers & Software Set v16.7.1.1012 WHQL for Win8-10 dated 08/29/2018
Only Intel chipsets from 100-Series and from X299 up are natively supported by these drivers. 32bit drivers v16.7.1.1012 are not and probably will not be available. Thanks to Pacman resp. Station-Drivers for the source package.
new: Intel RSTe Drivers & Software Set v5.5.0.1367 for Win8-10 dated 08/30/2018
Notes:
The Drivers & Software Set contains the Intel RSTe SATA AHCI and SATA/sSATA RAID drivers v5.5.0.1334 WHQL dated 08/03/2018 (for Win8-10) and the Intel RSTe Software v5.5.0.1367 dated 08/30/2018. It is suitable for Intel C600/C600+/C220/C220+ Series Chipset systems like X79, X99 and X299 running in RSTe mode. All Windows Operating Systems from Win8 up to Win10 are supported. Note: Additionally the Set contains Win7-10 NVMe drivers for Intel NVMe Storage Controllers running on an Intel X79, X99 or X299 chipset system.
There are no 32bit Intel RSTe drivers v5.5.0.1334 available. 32bit Operating Systems are obviously not supported by this Drivers & Software Set.
Thanks to Station-Drivers for the source package.
Good luck with these new Intel RSTe drivers resp. the new Drivers & Software Set! Dieter (alias Fernando)
Hello, i faced RST driver BUG - when i put my PC in to sleep state, it is spin up HDDs, after it powering off them again and going to sleep. When i use default win7x64 driver "ahci 1.0 serial ATA" PC go to sleep without spinning up my HDDs, but performance is quite lesser then RST one. Are there any tweak (may be regedit) that can provide going to sleep without spinning up HDDs?? I use hp z420 motherboard with Intel® C602 Chipset, and win7x64. I will be grateful for any help.
I don’t know any registry tweak, which will solve your specific problem. To be able to help you nevertheless, I need the following information: 1. Which are the HardwareIDs of your in-use Intel SATA AHCI Controller? 2. Which Intel RST driver version did you install?
Thank you for your reply) 1. PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1D02&SUBSYS_1589103C&REV_05 i have when i use "ahci 1.0 serial ATA" driver, checked with RST 10.1.0.1008 also have same hardwareid 2. i tried: 10.1.0.1008 11.7.4.1001 12.8.20.1002 13.1.0.1058 also some RSTe versions, there was same problem but plus HDDs not go to sleep during PC work at all
