At first boot, I opened the BIOS and changed the Chipset SATA Mode to RAID, then installed Windows to the HDD, and installed all of the software and drivers that came with the Intel MB. I opened the RST software, expecting I could enable the "accelerate mode", but I can't find it.
What have I done wrong? Or better yet, what must I do?
Thanks kindly.

Intel Smart Response Technology is available on Ultrabook, all-in-one, and standard PCs powered by the 3rd generation Intel Core processor family.

It'squite disappointing that I can't get Smart Response (which is a terrible name by the way - you might pass that on); I built the computer with that in mind. Thequote was fromthe Intel Smart Response Technology User Guide. I don't have the URL.
Do your comments mean that vPro and Smart Response are mutually exclusive? That would be terrible. I was told that only the Q67 chipset and boards currently provided vPro technology, butthey apparently don't provide Smart Response. Would that change ifI replaced the 2nd generation i7 with a 3rd generation equivalent in my existing Q67 board? Unfortunately the 3rd generation are not yet in stock at my distributor, or I would have had the system built with it.
Or would I also need the Q77 chipset and board (also not in stock yet, but also imminent), or maybe a different 3rd-gen chipset? Surely there is some way to get both vPro and Smart Response.
Thanks again for your help,
David Pike

Thanks Gael for all your help. I followed the leads you gave me and concluded the following (for others inquiring about the same thing.)
For anyone trying to implement Smart Response on a vPro system, the status as of June 5, 2012 is:
1. As of now, it is not available.
2.It will require
(i) a 3rd generation i5 or i7 (just launched, should be available at distributors in ~1 month)
(ii) a Q75 or Q77 chipset (expect launch in next 3 months). I had to read between the lines, but
I'm pretty sure on that
(iii) a Q75 or Q77 motherboard. Intel has not launched theirs. ASUS has not announced yet.
Gigabyte has announced theirs, and their specs clearly state that vPro and Smart Response
are both supported. I can't find any of the Gigabyte boards in stock or listed at my distributor,
and I expect thatthey won't release the boards until Intel officially launches the chipsets
My assumptions about the Q7x functionality are based on the Gigabyte board specs.
In summary, it's not available now, but probably will be by early fall.
