The Easiest and Fastest Way to Install Intel® Smart Response Technology
About GIGABYTE EZ Smart Response
The GIGABYTE EZ Smart Response utility is a simple application that allows users to quickly and easily configure their system for Intel® Smart Response Technology. In the past, enabling Intel® Smart Response meant users needed to enter the BIOS in order to configure their system for RAID mode, which then required a complete reinstall of the operating system. Once that processes was complete, users then needed to install the Intel® Rapid Storage Utility as well as configure Intel's Smart Response Technology. GIGABYTE EZ Smart Response does all of this automatically, without users having to perform a complicated install process.
This allows them to quickly and effortlessly enjoy a significant boost in system performance.
Intel® Smart Response Technology
GIGABYTE Z68 series motherboards are equipped with the much anticipated Intel® Smart Response Technology, allowing users to experience system performance similar to SSD only systems. Intel® Smart Response technology works by using intelligent block-based caching of frequently used applications to improve system performance and
responsiveness. In fact, GIGABYTE Z68 motherboards with Intel® Smart Response Technology are able to outperform hybrid drive systems by more than 2X (PC Mark Vantage HDD test) and HDD-only systems by as much as 4X (PC Mark Vantage HDD test) and deliver a 60% performance improvement over HDD-only systems in PC Mark Vantage Suite.

When I run this program nothing happens....It loads in the task list for less than a second then disappears. I can't seem to install the Intel Storage Technology driver because it says my system doesn't meet the minimum requirements. I am using the the lastest installer (1027) and using a Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD7-B3 with F7 BIOS on a fresh install of windows. I originally installed windows with XHD on but got the boot error after first reboot. Installed IDE mode without SSD.
