Intel® Matrix Storage Manager Installation 6 Intel® Matrix Storage Manager Installation 6.1 Overview After installing an operating system onto a RAID volume or on a Serial ATA hard drive when in RAID or AHCI mode, the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager can be loaded from within Windows. This installs the user interface (i.e. Intel® Matrix Storage Console), the tray icon service, and the monitor service onto the system, allowing you to monitor the health of your RAID volume and/or hard drives. This method can also be used to upgrade to a newer version of the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager. Warning: The Intel® Matrix Storage Manager driver may be used to operate the hard drive from which the the system is booting or a hard drive that contains important data. For this reason, you cannot remove or un-install this driver from the system; however, you will have the ability to un-install all other non-driver components. The following non-driver components can be un-installed: • Intel® Matrix Storage Console • Help documentation • Start Menu shortcuts • System tray icon service • RAID monitor service 6.2 Where to Obtain Software If a CD-ROM was included with your motherboard or system, it should include the Intel® Matrix Storage Manager.
