    Greetings,

    I just received my Dell E6500 and am poking around in the BIOS Setup Utility. The hard drive is configured for Intel Rapid Restore Technology (IRRT). Can anyone explain what this is? Something to do with RAID perhaps?

    Thanks in advance!

    Seems like a sort of delayed mirroring ...

    "Intel Rapid Recover Technology is a feature of Intel Matrix Storage Manager. It uses RAID 1 (mirroring) functionality to copy data from a designated master drive to a designated recovery drive. The master drive data can be copied to the recovery drive either continuously or on request.

    When using the continuous update policy, changes made to the data on the master drive while the system is not docked are automatically copied to the recovery drive when the system is re-docked. When using the on request update policy, the master drive data can be restored to a previous state by copying the data on the recovery drive back to the master drive.

    Note: The recovery volume can be the only volume on a system. Recovery volume capacity will equal the size of the smaller of the two hard drives. "
