If i enable rapid mode will in increase the writes. How rapid mode works and is it useful?

Eh... It's just RAM caching that does little more than boost benchmark numbers these days.

so the data will be cached to ssd storage write instead of ram ?

I'm not an expert on it, but here's a quick quote and much longer, detailed article. Scroll down to the is it worth it section.

The Samsung Rapid Mode benchmarks are a bit deceiving. Technical reviews revealed the actual real world increase in performance is anywhere between 0% and 25% depending on what was loaded into the Ramdisk. The 0% represents brand new data of some type that has never been loaded into the Ramdisk while the 25% represents some type of data that is routinely loaded into the Ramdisk.

Instead of writing data directly to the ssd, it will first write it to RAM, and then copy it onto the ssd in the background.

That makes or send the order to the system that the task "Write" has been completed, instead of sending the completed command when it was written to the SSD. So, if anything happens before data can be transferred from the cache to the SSD cells (power outage), there are probabilities that the data was not written. But the alert of ready or completed is definitely faster than sending it until it gets saved in the actual disk.
