BIOS

Dell recommends flashing the latest BIOS available to the system. This is posted on Dell's driver & downloads

support web site (support.dell.com) under the "BIOS" section.

Some of the BIOS settings are critical to Operating System performance. These are as follows:

If AHCI, IRRT, RAID On, or RAID modes are selected, Intel's Matrix Storage Manager / Intel Rapid

Storage Technology driver must be installed in conjunction with the installation of the Operating System.
