In my current Bios version F3t, I have setup my drives as follow:
- 2 SSD OCZ Raid(0) Intel Rapid Storage (Main with OS)
- 3 HDDs WD Raid(5) with 64GB SSD (intel smart response Technology)<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
I Flashed my GA-X79-UP4 from F3t to F3xwith @Bios. So far so good.
<o:p></o:p>
First Time:
After reboot the Bios identifies my individual drives (under tab Peripherals):
So I changed the following settings in the (F3x)Bios:
First optimized settings then
- Intel Sata controller mode = Raid
- Intel Rapid Storage technology = iRST
- Intel I/OAT = enabled.
- Full Screen LOGO Show = Disabled (to see the raid configuration at startup).<o:p></o:p>
And Reboot
After reboot I expected the raid drives to be visible.
And in tab 'BIOS Features' I expected the Raid configured drives to be visible.
but they were not.
And when booting, the system tells me there are no boot drives installed???<o:p></o:p>
“Reboot and Select proper Boot device…”
So, after this firs attempt I went back to F3t.
I didn’t want to mess-up my storage configuration.
I changed the above settings, and my F3t Bios works like a charm.

After this I updated the Bios to F3u. No problems there. Worksthe same like F3t.
