Z68XP-UD3 wont run iSRT

Has anyone got smart response running on this board?  I cannot get it working as there is no accelerate tab in the RST app.

Thanks in advance

Please explain the steps you took in setting it up.

i've tried several different ways, starting with the official instructions from intel.  RST states my SSD type is hard drive, shouldn't this be SSD?  I'm going to order an mSata drive to go on the board and see if that works.

You really need to explain the steps you took to setup as it is very simple and should work without issue.

What SSD are you using?

Don't go throwing money at a problem until you figure out your issues.  I hate seeing people spend money needlessly.

Have you thought of running your SSD and HDD in AHCI mode using your SSD as boot drive and HDD as data drive?  It is much quicker in most cases and ISRT only shows a slight improvement in speed as it is still slowed down by the HDD.

As stated previously, I followed intels instructions.  I'm guessing its either my SSD at fault, or possibly the board as it was an open box purchase. 
My SSD is a first gen OCZ Solid 30gb.  it was bought second hand so I don't know what sort of life its had.  The mSata drive was planned before I even attempted to get this running as I just wanted to see how fast it ran, I have plans for this current SSD anyway. 

I've finally got a messge back from gigabyte's tech support with some specific software versions that are confirmed working so I will try again some time this week.
