Smart Response Technology boosts overall system performance. It uses an installed

fast SSD (min. 0GB available) as a cache for frequently accessed operations, speeding up

hard drive/main memory interaction. Key benefits are expedited hard drive speeds, reduced

load and wait times, and maximized storage utilization. Power consumption also goes down

by reducing unnecessary hard drive spin.

Before applying Intel

Smart Response Technology, setting the SATA Mode BIOS item to

[RAID mode] in BIOS setup is necessary.
