Benchmark results with ISRT enabled
In our test platform, we used the Core i5-2500K processor with 2x2GB Kingston running at DDR3-1866 C7-8-7-20-1T. The HDD we used is an old Seagate 7200.7 SATA 1.5G 160GB and the Kingston SSDNOw 64GB V Series SSD drive.
We first tested it without the SSD and cache disabled. PCMark Vantage HDD test gave us a score of 3237. With the ISRT enabled, the score shot up to 9451. That is a 191% increase in performance for PCMark Vantage HDD test.
In the detail test, the improvement can be up to 349% in application loading.

Conclusion
If you intend to take advantage of the speed, you have to remember to set the system to oeprate in RAID mode in BIOS. Most importantly, you need to get hold of the latest BIOS and ISRT driver from your vendor.
Come to think of it, if SSD pricing are coming down, would it be better that you get a SSD as your boot drive than to use it as a Cache. This might be true in years to come when we see higher capacity SSDs. HDD still provides a cheap storage medium and SSD will probably be just the CACHE for the time being.
