Notes:
1. Known Issue is defined as a potential Intel® RST issue that has been replicated internally by
the Intel® RST team but has not been root caused to be an Intel® RST defect.
2. The RAID OROM & UEFI version for this release is 19.5.9.5815 to fix PreOS PSIRT, the driver
and user interface version is 19.5.8.1059.2 and Intel® Optane™ Memory and Storage
Management (HSA) driver version 20.0.1019.0. For Intel® RST Premium features (e.g. RAID,
Intel® Optane™ memory, CPU Attached Storage), it is recommended that both the Intel® RST
pre-OS and Intel® RST OS driver components are updated. Please contact your CE for further
details.
