Which F6-drivers should I use from the Windows* Intel® VROC software package during a Windows* operating system (OS) installation? The available options are:

• iaRNVMe.free.win7.64bit.ver
• iaRNVMe.free.win8.64bit.ver

• iaStorE.free.win8.64bit.ver

There are various F6 drivers depending on the type of Intel® VROC RAID volume used as the bootable volume:

• iaStorE drivers are for SATA and sSATA drives.
• iaVROC drivers are for NVMe* drives (when attached to the Intel® VMD controller).
• iaRNVMe is the driver designated for Intel platforms that do not support Intel® VMD technology.
