I set it up with a similar process of how I'm doing this one. SanDisk Ultra II 256GB SSD - Windows 10 OS, GPT with UEFI bootĤx Seagate ST32000646NS 2TB HDDs - RAID 0 The way it worked, while four of the five SATA ports were in RAID mode, the fifth port was still in AHCI mode. Motherboard was an ASRock 990FX Extreme 3. I am desperately trying to avoid reinstalling Windows just to have the RAID driver installed from the start, and I'd rather not do a software RAID (Windows "Striped Volume").ĭo we have any suggestions or things that I can do to get this done? Or some workaround that gets that same thing done.
RADI BOOTS INSTALL
So here's what I need - I need to be able to install the SATA RAID driver for my x399 without the system being in RAID mode.
Then I download the actual chipset drivers and display drivers and download and install them and reboot, then try the SATA RAID driver installer again, and its a no-go, still only gives me options for display drivers. I go to download the SATA RAID drivers from the AMD chipset drivers page for the x399, and when I run the installer. So I switch it back to AHCI and boot Windows, YAY. Pulled the SSD over to the old motherboard and attempted to enable Safe boot before bringing it over, to see if I could safe boot with RAID mode on - turns out, I could not. So I tried to boot Windows after configuring the RAID 0 on the other four drives and, lo and behold, Blue screens "Inaccessible Boot device"
This new motherboard does not appear to have that lucky setting - either all drives are in RAID mode (though not all need to be in a RAID, of course), or all drives are not.
The old motherboard luckily had only 4 of the SATA ports capable of RAID, the fifth was held out of RAID configuration. Now on my old motherboard, I had 4 SATA HDDs in RAID 0 and then my SATA SSD as the main OS drive. So I recently decided to upgrade to the Threadripper series, getting the 1900 and an Asus Prime X399-A to go with it.
