Mobile Systems With Shock Sensor; Intel Ssds In Raid Configurations Using Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Driver; Mobile Systems Without Intel® Rapid Storage Technology Or Intel® Matrix Storage Manager - Intel X18-M - 80GB Mlc Ssd User Manual

Mobile Systems with Shock Sensor

If you have an Intel SSD installed in a mobile system with shock sensor, make sure the shock sensor on
the mobile system is disabled.
Note: Intel SSDs are not affected with performance degradation caused by shock or vibration in specified
limits, and therefore, can run with the shock sensor disabled. See the Intel Solid-State Drive Product
Specification for your Intel SSD for specified limits. See your system documentation for information on
disabling this feature.
Intel SSDs in RAID Configurations Using Intel® Rapid
Storage Technology Driver
To obtain higher performance from RAID configurations consisting of Intel SSDs and Intel® Rapid Storage
Technology (Intel® RST), make sure Intel® RST Write Back Cache is enabled.
Note: Enabling Write Back Cache increases the chance of system data loss during a power-loss event.
(However, all data written to the SSD will be committed to NAND during a power-loss event.) See your
system documentation for information on enabling or disabling this feature.
Mobile Systems without Intel® Rapid Storage
Technology or Intel® Matrix Storage Manager
To obtain higher performance on mobile systems with an Intel SSD without Intel Rapid Storage
Technology or Intel Matrix Storage Manager, enable DIPM (Device Initiated Power Management) on your
mobile system. See your system documentation for instructions.
