[SOLVED] 1 Drive in AHCI + 2 Drives in Raid 0

[Sir_Situation]

My Spec: Motherboard- AMD B450 Plus Gaming
1x Samsung 860 EVO 1TB
2x Samsung 840 EVO 1TB


Hi guys

My question is: Whether it is possible to use a single drive 860 as my main drive and then use the two 840s in Raid 0 for my games and storage?
When I select Raid mode in my BIOS and configure the 2 Samsung 840s, I can't boot from my 860 which is in AHCI mode. I would like to avoid using the software way if possible. Can I use a the single 860 if I set it up as a single Array?

Asus or MSI? - Both have boards names B450 Gaming Plus.
You have 2 sata controllers on those boards. One for 2 of the ports from the CPU and the Chipset controls the remaining 4.
Try putting the AHCI on the other ports. (sata 5 or 6) Would probably/might work.

Why a RAID 0?

AHCI is a subset of raid.
It should work with a clean install.

There is NO redeeming value in raid-0.
Synthetic benchmarks look wonderful, but in actual use, performance may be worse.
