Expanding on wardog's post, in my different ASRock X370 board, in the UEFI/BIOS there are three SATA configuration screens, two of them among the Advanced\AMD CBS screens.
Each of these screens has a SATA mode selection, AHCI or RAID. Since the SOC on the CPU provides some of the SATA ports, and the chipset does too, that makes sense. Why there are three screens has me wondering...  The first several AMD SATA ports should be configured by the main Storage Configuration screen in the Advanced screen. Which screen belongs to the other SATA ports, I have not worked out yet. Check your manual for the location of the AMD SATA ports, and which ports are numbered starting at SATA3_0 or SATA3_1. Those should be the main AMD SATA III ports. |

I've downloaded and installed that 500+MB RAIDXpert executable, but it doesn't install RAIDXpert. I have to go to the AMD folder it's extracted to and I'm not sure which one to install. This is really frustrating.

I'm trying to re-install the AMD All in 1 Drivers, but it just keeps sitting there saying installing... but not doing anything. I'd show a pic, but I can't figure out how to add one.

visualsoul, it really should not be this difficult. Please do not use the All-in-One stuff. Please get the latest AMD SW from AMD. I suggest you kill the forever install you have going. I tried installing RAIDXpert on my VM but it did not work because the VM does not have any AMD HW. If you will click on your UP arrow next to the clock (bottom right of screen) you should see an Icon for Radeon/AMD. Double click this and see if you can find an option to get RAIDXpert going. There is a sticky in top of the forum describing how to post images. Please keep us informed. Enjoy, John.

It says License Level 0 - No RAID (Does not support RAIDXpert2). When I attempt to login with admin/admin, it does nothing.

Currently the two drives that I'm trying to RAID are in SATA3_1 and SATA3_2. I also have an 8 TB drive but that's in either SATA3_A1 or A2, I don't recall. If I turn RAID on in the BIOS, I lose those two 2TB drives. They aren't even visible to Windows 10. Do I need to move the two drives to maybe SATA3_3 and SATA3_4?

visualsoul, I have not set up a RAID yet but I plan one on my next build. I will take a look at the RAID manual I provided a link to above. I assume you will need to enable RAID in BIOS so you can boot into the RAID manager. Above, wardog said:
Make sure you have none of the drives you wish to RAID plugged into these two ports. I will do some studying and post more. Enjoy, John. |

visualsoul, are you running 64 bit version of W10, W8 or W8.1? If not you cannot use Way 2, and I assume you cannot setup a multiple TB RAID. You really need to read the RAID manual - DL here. Please post all your system specifications as in my signature. Thanks and enjoy, John.

The lower two SATA ports, SATA3_A1 and SATA3_A2, are on the ASMedia SATA Controller and will NOT be seen by any AMD RAID config.
