Acer N20c5 Storage Driver (2027)

Acer rarely updates N20C5-specific drivers after 12–18 months. However, you can safely upgrade to newer Intel RST drivers from Intel’s website (version 19.x and 20.x have been tested on N20C5 boards without issues).

Recommended update schedule:

Solution: Disable VMD in BIOS temporarily. Reboot → Press F2 during boot → Go to Advanced → VMD Configuration → Set Enable VMD to Disabled. Save and exit.
Note: After disabling VMD, Windows will use the standard NVMe driver. Performance may slightly drop, but compatibility improves. acer n20c5 storage driver
