Hello, Gregg1.

 

Yes, installing the driver is a normal procedure, but this mostly depends on the RST BIOS configuration of your system.

 

If the 11th gen system is configured to work with RST or the drives are VMD controlled, you will be required to install the driver, as seen in the article below:

- https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000058724/memory-and-storage/intel-optane-memory.html

 

If you have other questions related to the driver itself, I would recommend creating a new thread in the Intel RST community section to get assistance from the dedicated team, as this current forum is for Optane-related inquiries, or reaching out to the system manufacturer if you have any doubts on how to properly configure your system.

 

Please let me know if I can help you with anything else, and I will follow up on June 21st.

 

Regards,

Hello, Gregg1.


Thank you for posting on the Intel Community Support forum.


I received your case regarding the Intel Optane Memory and Storage management messages, and I will be assisting you with this.


Based on the description, I'm not entirely sure what the current problem is, what type of message were you expecting? or what are you trying to accomplish?


Any other details will be greatly appreciated.


Please also provide us with a full system report using Intel SSU:


1. Download the Intel® System Support Utility and save the application to your system.

- https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/18377/25293/intel-system-support-utility-for-windows.html?

2. Open the application and click Scan to see system and device information. The Intel® System Support Utility defaults to the Summary View on the output screen following the scan. Click the menu where it says summary to change to Detailed View.

3. To save your scan, click Next and click Save. You can save the file to any accessible location on your computer.


I will follow up on June 14th in case additional time is required.


Best regards,


Bruce C.

however I wanted to clarify that the notification that came out was a fake notification or smart event exit so I had solved it by removing it, however, I returned to windows 10 with a clean installation and the notification does not come out

Hello, Gregg1.

 

Thank you for the details and for confirming we can close the other thread.

 

Regarding the issue, your system only shows one Samsung NVMe drive, and there is no Optane Memory installed, so it is possible that the system had the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) driver along with the Intel Optane Memory and Storage Management application installed by default, and showed incorrect error messages related to the fact that there was no Optane installed, similar to what is described in this article.

 

Since you reinstalled the operating system, that got rid of that configuration, and that is why the alert and application no longer show up, meaning that your system is completely fine.

 

If you want to monitor your SSD, you can use the tools provided by the manufacturer, for example:

Hello, Gregg1.


Generally, there is no need for you to use Intel RST if you are not going to use any type of RAID configuration or work with Optane Memory, but you can do it, there is no problem with that, and it is always recommended to reach out to the platform manufacturer for assistance .


I'm glad to see that everything is working fine, so please let me know if I can help you with anything else, or if you have any other questions, but if this is not the case, I will proceed to close the thread on June 20th.
