This Package Contains an Exempted Check
Not All Tests Have Passed
This version is in moderation and has not yet been approved. This means it doesn't show up under normal search.
- Until approved, you should consider this package version unsafe - it could do very bad things to your system (it probably doesn't but you have been warned, that's why we have moderation).
- This package version can change wildly over the course of moderation until it is approved. If you install it and it later has changes to this version, you will be out of sync with any changes that have been made to the package. Until approved, you should consider that this package version doesn't even exist.
- You cannot install this package under normal scenarios. See How to install package version under moderation for more information.
- There are also no guarantees that it will be approved.
There are versions of this package awaiting moderation (possibly just this one). See the Version History section below.
Detailed Description
Note: Intel recommends that end users utilize driver updates provided by their system manufacturer/provider or via Windows Update to eliminate the potential impact caused by loading non-customized drivers. System manufacturers regularly customize Intel generic drivers to meet the needs of their specific system design. In such cases, use of the Intel generic driver update is not recommended.
The SetupRST.exe is the new installer that will install the Intel RST driver and start the process of installing the Intel® Optane™ Memory and Storage Management application.
Purpose
The Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) Driver supports the configuration and enabling of multiple features including:
- System acceleration with Intel® Optane™ memory
- Configuration and maintenance of RAID 0/1/5/10
This package deploys the suitable Intel RST driver in alignment with your computer's CPU generation, as detailed in Intel's official guidelines.
You can find more information about each driver's version by visiting the Intel RST download page associated with your computer's CPU generation.
7th Gen PlatformsNote: In November 2023 Intel removed the info URL and download URL for the 7th generation driver. This link may be removed in the future.- 8th and 9th Gen Platforms
- 10th and 11th Gen Platforms - see package notes below
- 12th and 13th Gen Platforms
- 14th and 15th Gen Platforms
Package Notes
As of May 2025, Intel revised its driver pages, consolidating support for 11th-13th Gen platforms under 12th and 13th Gen listings. This page was removed entirely. Due to this change, the RST version used for 11th Gen systems has been adjusted. If this update introduces issues on your systems, we recommend avoiding Intel RST updates via Chocolatey, as Intel tends to modify its platform mappings and versioning without warning.

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

intel-rst-driver has passed automated validation. It may have or may still fail other checks like testing (verification).
NOTE: No required changes that the validator checks have been flagged! It is appreciated if you fix other items, but only Requirements will hold up a package version from approval. A human review could still turn up issues a computer may not easily find.
Guidelines
Guidelines are strong suggestions that improve the quality of a package version. These are considered something to fix for next time to increase the quality of the package. Over time Guidelines can become Requirements. A package version can be approved without addressing Guideline comments but will reduce the quality of the package.
Suggestions
Suggestions are either newly introduced items that will later become Guidelines or items that are don't carry enough weight to become a Guideline. Either way they should be considered. A package version can be approved without addressing Suggestion comments.
