yello,

I've searched forums but couldn't find an answer to the question I'm pondering so I've decided to start this thread for an answer and hopefully it'll help others as well as I will be choosing a best answer :)

(My motherboard and CPU are very capable of utilizing ISR )

So, here it is I was wondering, Is this possible?

I have 2 SSD(s) a
- 128GB Samsung 830
- 64GB Samsung 830

I have 1 Hard drive
- 1TB Seagate Barracuda (7200 RPM 64Mb Cache)

Can i use intel smart response with the 64GB samsung 830 and the 1TB Seagate Barracuda if I have windows installed on the 128 GB Samsung 830 (boot drive)?

You *should* be able to use some of the 64 GB SSD for caching the hard drive and let the 128GB SSD be your boot drive. Whether or not it will work, I don't know. You could give it a try to find out. Back up the data that you care about and the worst case scenario is reloading the backups.
