Not 100% sure about this this, but see if there are options in the bios.

You can also:
Google: "intel srt user guide" (and download the PDF help file)
Go to Intel and download the latest software.

Also:
Read your LAPTOP MANUAL if it helps though the Intel SRT user guide may be the most useful.

If I understand correctly, you have a laptop and this technology will allow it to periodically turn on to update your e-mail then turn off again?

It sounds like you changed something in your BIOS when you switched drives like from RAID to ACHI or something so the solution may involve:
- a BIOS change, and
- a change in the Intel SRT software in Windows

Since you bought an SSD there's no speed advantage to startup using the small SSD with Intel SRT so the only advantage now is ensuring your e-mail is already pre-downloaded? Personally, I'd remove the small SSD.

In case you didn't realize:
The best way to shutdown for most people is HYBRID SLEEP.
