iBuypower set my SATA cables in the A1-A2 media ports. This was a fault on them. Unfortunately, the Asrock .pdf for my mobo is out of date and currently being worked on. iBuypower said that I should have bought Windows through them and it would have been set up correctly. Also, called me an idiot and a liar.

Called Asrock this morning. Guy was extremely helpful and only took 5 seconds to diagnose the issue. Kudos support team. Thanks for the reply btw.

I ran across this video (https://www.youtube.com/embed/qg1Vvh67Efw?rel=0&showinfo=0&autoplay=1) a few days ago.  It is for an Intel MB and concentrates of RAID for M.2 SSDs, but I think it may help.  Enjoy, John.

also check what ports you have the drives on...2 ports are thru the south bridge and do not support raid...i believe it A1 and A2.

AMD offers their RAIDXpert Utility Software for Windows as an individual d/l aside from the chipset drivers.

If you go into the bios under advanced then storage configuration and flip sata type from ahci to raid the splash screen pops up after the main screen. Atleast it does on the fatality which is the same chipset.

Side note, the Floppy image installs drivers but never recognizes the drives as sata compatable. Only shows them as separate drives.

Ok had a chance to play with my pc a sec..I have the fatality k4 b350 which from what ive heard is very similar if not identical to the pro4. I can confirm the raid drivers are in the floppy image download.

Did you go into the bios under advanced -> storage configuration and flip sata type from ahci to raid?

Then after that after the main boot asrock screen a raid screen should pop up where you hit "ctrl+r" to config the raid.


Hope that helps....atleast a little.
