There is a new Intel RAID ROM (11.5.0.1347) available.
 
Any chance of a new BIOS? Please?

If your looking for an official bios, I wouldn't hold your breath....but, I'm sure someone may mod it.

where is the new raid rom at?

Do you happen to know if this is the one that finally supports TRIM in Raid?

We need to keep this thread going guy's so maybe we'll get a bios update like the x58 guys did please EVGA update my raid rom!

No volunteers, then?
 
I wish I knew how.

I know dejanh could do it, but it appears he has not posted since March 6, so I fear he may have left us.

Maybe if we complain enough again, something will get done like last time.

 
The point is, we should not have to complain, eVGA should be out in front of this.

Although, we are at the limits of OROM space, so I am not going to hold my breath.

 
Is the new OROM too large? Delete some of the useless crap in the BIOS to make it fit, then.
 
I agree we most likely will never see another 'official' (as in; eVGA actually needed to put some effort and resources into it)  BIOS for the X58 boards. I suppose I simply must accept no TRIM for my array, and let it slowly degrade until it dies.

Have you seen this?
 
However, it appears that it adds RAID0 support only for Windows 8.

E770 (Classified 3)?

Thanks a ton for doing this, I will be testing it soon!

Here are the links to all EVGA X58 motherboard BIOSes modded by me with the latest available Intel Option ROM 11.5.0.1347. Mod tool used is CBROM v.198. The only BIOS I have actually tested is the E75783.bin file, which is for the X58 LE board. All BIOSes should work just fine with this new RAID ROM, but just like Dejanh, I take absolutely no responsibility for any damage this may cause to your motherboard. Enjoy!
 
 
So will any of these fix my speeds in raid 0. I have 2 Mushkin Enhanced Chronos 120g in Raid 0, and only get about 450mbs reads.

After  flash with this bios installed latest beta driver (11.5.0.1153 beta),it installs but it says : not for this system
BSOD after reboot
Installed 11.1.0.1006 WHQL again, and it works fine again.

Unfortunately the X58 update did nothing for the Sata III raid control. I have to Mushkin Enhanced Chronos 120g in Raid 0 and still only get 450 MBS reads when I should be getting over a gig.  

This RAID ROM replaces the Intel SATA II OROM in our BIOS, not the 3rd-party Marvell SATA III or JMicron SATA II OROMs. So, if your drives are attached to those controllers, it will not make a difference.

Try 11.5.0.1149, the whole software package, not just the driver. That should work just fine. I had the same error when I manually installed .1153 this morning. Keep in mind that 11.5.0.1149 and newer drivers use the same architecture as the enterprise drivers for the X79 chipset, meaning there are now two IASTOR files and all drives will show as SCSI in device manager. Also, single drives in AHCI mode will show as removable. Not a big deal, but definitely a change.
