What happens if I try to use an older version of the driver?
If you try to install the operating system on a 4k sector disk with a driver older than Intel® Rapid Storage Technology version 9.6, the installation process may not complete successfully.
If the operating system installation does complete, you should not attempt to upgrade to Intel® RST version 9.6 without reinstalling your operating system.
