Hey all, Went through a lot of unncessary hoops here. The Adaptor Software worked perfectly (thank you @faalin ), I just needed to bifurcate the PCIE 8 slot to 4x4 in the bios and I was good to go almost instantly. None of the other bio related changes were necessary so I just reverted them...

Ah! I see. Ya im actually watching another video by build or buy where he uses a self bifurcating add on card to install 4 nvme drives in software raid in a PCIE x8 slot. Im willing to bet, just like your saying, there is no need to go through all these hoops in the bios. Ill post again...

I guess I could try? I just dont understand why I need to set up a software raid after I created a raid 0 in bios? Isnt that hardware software redundancy? I guess more succinctly. If I set up software raid, do I need to do all the stuff I did in the bios to begin with? And I have also heard...

Thank you!

Gotcha, sorry this is my first post. Ill be more specific next time!!

So just for perspective. At work we have 8 tb raid 1 storage. Not trying to be quarrelsome here, so ill just give some perspective. This is a workstation pc, its modeled after what we use at work for what we do professionally. Our 'flames' at work have raid storage that ranges from 6-25 tbs...

I had originally planned for an 8 tb raid, but it wouldve needed to use a pcie x16 slot for this, and didnt want to use that premium of a slot for storage. So ya, its not 8 like I would have hoped, but 4 is still better than 2, especially for houdini simulations.....

Very true. Its just a capacity thing. Its my working drive for VFX projects. Id like to have 4 tbs for storage rather than 2 split drives. Im not actually looking for a performance boost, I just dont want to get a performance loss by using windows storage pooling.

Hey all, Ive been trying to set up a raid 0 with a pair of intel 660 p series drives. Im struggling to get the partition recognized correctly within the operating system. This is NOT an OS raid, it is just a raid I want to use for high speed storage. At this point the bios raid has been...
