System drive not available to select when choosing device to accelerate

I have the latest IRST and I have the SSD ready to provide acceleration. The SSD is 240 GB with an RAID 0 on it that the IRST program created with a 64 GB cache volume and a 160GB regular volume.

Otherwise, I have two 2TB drives one of which is my system drive and is identified as such by IRST.

When I got to select device to accelerate, the only drive available to accelerate is the NON-system drive. The system drive is not available to accelerate.

Any help would be much appreciated here.

Thanks!

I have attached pictures showing what I am seeing.

I would like to know more about your hardware configuration:

Where is the operating system installed? HDD or SSD?

Are you trying to accelerate regular HDD or the SSD?

The operating system is installed on the HDD

I am trying to accelerate that HDD but can only accelerate the non-system HDD

I have a 240 GB SDD of which 60GB is dedicated to acceleration

Per the picture I sent earlier, only the non-system HDD is available from the menu to accelerate

Thanks

If possible, please attach the Intel® Rapid Storage http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/boards-and-kits/000006351.html system report and screenshot of disk management, I would like to see how is the disk partitioned.

 

Thanks for your time.
