Configuration options: [Enabled] [Disabled] Active Memory Threshold [0] This item supports Intel Rapid Storage Technology when the partition size is greater than the Active Page Threshold size. When set to zero (0), it will go to Auto mode and checks if the partition size is enough at S3 entry. Ensure that the caching partition size is larger than the total memory size. Hybrid Hard Disk Support [Disabled] This item allows you to enable or disable the hybrid hard disk support for a faster resume time. Configuration options: [Enabled] [Disabled] Intel Smart Connect Technology [Disabled] Intel Smart Connect Technology Support [Disabled] This item allows the system to support Intel Smart Connect Technology, that periodically refreshes selected applications when the system is in sleep mode.

SATA Express (SATAEXPRESS) and M.2 Configuration [Auto] This item allows you to set an automatic detection between the SATA Express devices and M.2 devices. [Auto] The system automatically detects the connected SATA Express or M.2 devices and set a higher priority to M.2 over SATA Express interface. [SATA Express] The system assigns the priority bandwidth to SATA Express (SATAEXPRESS_1) interface. [M.2] The system assigns the priority bandwidth to M.2 Socket 3. By default, the system detects the first priority device. The device detection priority is as follows: PCIe M.2 > SATA Mode M.2 > PCIe SATA Express > SATA Mode SATA Express. ASUS Z97-E/USB 3.1 2-33
