    yes install it after you apply the 5 line registry tweak to disable LPM.

    I initially used the Microsoft AHCI driver, but after about 2 days the BSOD that others have reported does indeed start to occur.

    Installing the RST drivers fixes this issue, but will instead freeze the whole PC for a long pause at bootup and at other intervals for around 30-60seconds. You will need to add the registry tweak to disable LPM to stop the freezes.
