The following issues have been fixed in this release:

- IO performance drop issue with SATA SSDs
- AMD StoreMI installer failure on some system with AMD Ryzen 5000 series desktop processors

The following are known issues in this release:

- After installing AMD StoreMI, performance of some models of M2 SATA SSD may drop.
 - AMD StoreMI installation fails on some systems where: Dual operating system (OS) is configured. In such scenarios, AMD StoreMI is only supported on the primary OS.
- AMD StoreMI installation fails on some systems where: B550 systems due to page file being set to non-boot drive by default. In such a case, enable paging for the boot drive only and try installing again.

Storage Devices

- At least one rotational hard disk (HDD) of any capacity larger than the SSD cache device. The HDD must be connected to a SATA port provided in the AMD processor or chipset.
- At least one unformatted, uninitialized, unallocated SATA or NVMe SSD for storage acceleration. If using a brand new, unused SSD, simply plug the SSD into the system. Most new SSDs will offer a default name to identify it in the AMD StoreMI Cache device menu. A used SSD can be re-used as an AMD StoreMI cache device. However, all the vital data must be backed up by the user and any existing partitions/volumes must be deleted before proceeding.
- The former AMD StoreMI tiering software must not be installed.
- The system should not be configured for RAID storage.
- The maximum drive count is 16.

About Tuning Utility:

Install this tuning utility and you will be able to manually configure various overclocking values, such as CPU and memory frequencies, system clocks, fan speeds, and monitor temperature for different components.

However, please note that you're supposed to tweak these settings only between supported ranges; changing configurations to extreme values without additional cooling systems might seriously damage components.

The installation steps needed for the software to be applied are very easy: get the downloadable package, extract it if necessary, run the available setup, and carefully follow all displayed instructions for a complete and successful installation.

In addition to that, please note that it's recommended you perform a system reboot so that all changes can take effect properly. Bear in mind that, even though other OSes might be compatible, we don't suggest against installing this release on platforms other than the highlighted ones.
