    Posted: 09 Sep 2017 at 11:16pm
I was wondering if anyone could help here.  I have a X370 Fatal1ty Pro board with 1800x processor.  The OS is installed on a Samsung 960 EVO 1TB, but I am trying to create a RAID0 with two of my 2TB Seagate SSHD's.  I tried using the BIOS utility, but that seems to limit you to 2TB an under.  I've tried installing the RAIDXpert utility on the disk, but once it's been installed and running, there are zero options for me to create a RAID.  I've also downloaded and installed a RAIDXpert2 option and that doesn't even allow me to login once the app has been installed.  Not sure why they make this such a pain in the butt.  On my previous Intel systems, it was so incredibly easy and quick.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

it appears when you search for chipset drivers for x370 along with the latest amd chipset driver

datonyb, I think you are talking about RAIDXpert.  Please correct if I am wrong but that is all I see and visualsoul has tried it and RAIDXpert2.

visualsoul, please look at the manuals (.pdf).  RAIDXpert2 says the max is 2.119 TB.  I did not read details in the RAIDXpert manual but it talked about migrating 16 TB LDs (Logical Devices, I think).  Enjoy, John.

datonyb, you did and are doing fine.  I have used RAIDXpert before and am thinking about a RAID now.  Your post prompted me to DL the applications and manuals.  I suspect visualsoul has the apps but not the manuals.  I have done almost no research on RAID so far.  Enjoy, John.

visualsoul, please DL and read the RAID manual from here.  See Way2 for creating a RAID greater than 3GB.  Using the BIOS RAID setup:
Quote Onboard RAID 3TB+ Unlocker

Enjoy, John.

The default login ID and password are both admin, which you can later change.

For disk arrays larger than 2.2TB, the disks must be GPT formatted. As said above, use the "Way 2" instructions, but be sure to use the X370 chipset section, very important!

Yes, I agree the Intel RAID configuration is much easier. I used the AMD for the first time with RYzen and was surprised.

@MisterJ That isn't an even an option on my motherboard.  Could not find it located anywhere.  

@parsec I can login, but there should be a tree along the left hand side that allows me to RAID my drives, but there's nothing there.  No logical drives or anything.

Meh, Create and manage RAID through Windows.

http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/chipset?os=Windows+10+-+64

Grab both 17.30 files, Chipset and the AMD RAIDXpert Utility.

Install the 17.30 Chipset Drivers first, reboot immediately after, then and only then install the Windows based 17.30 AMD RAIDXpert Utility.

Give that a try visualsoul.

From me, a Michigander(Kalamazoo) myself until I retired here to AZ a year and a half ago.

Oh sh*t guys.........

visualsoul, you don't by chance have these two drives connected to the lower two SATA ports do you?

If you do that would explain everything. 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.
