You want to create a RAID 0 array of your two SSDs, and install Win 10 on the RAID volume, correct?

It sounds like you haven't used the AMD RAID feature yet, is that right?

Creating the RAID 0 array is one thing, the AMD RAID driver used during a Windows installation is another. You don't need that driver to create the RAID array.

You need what is called the "F6" or "Floppy" RAID driver that is loaded during the Windows installation from a USB flash drive.

Checking the download page for your board, and other ASRock 970 boards, the latest version of the AMD RAID driver used during a Windows installation is the Win 7 version. That is true for other AMD boards, like the 990 series. You could check AMD's site for a newer version, but AMD may not have a newer version available.

That file, SATA RAID Driver, can be found on this page:

http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/970%20Pro3%20R2.0/?cat=Download&os=Win764

A newer version of this file for Windows 10 might be included in the AMD All in 1 driver file on your board's Win 10 download page. That file is 574MB, so I didn't download it to check.

To create the RAID 0 array before you install Windows, start the PC and enter Ctrl F, like we press the Del key to get into the BIOS. Ctrl f during POST will start the AMD RAID utility where you create the RAID 0 array.

yes i did do that array thing but when i got to windows install my raid 0 didnt show up to install it. i was told i needed a raid driver doing the windows drive install so that it see's the raid array.
