2x SSD RAID 0 and problem with Samsung Magician

[dezmont]

Hello guys
At the beginning sorry about my english.

I have a problem with the Samsung Magician software.
Today I bought two Samusng Evo SSD 850 250GB. I immediately plugged them in Raid 0. I installed the Windows 8 and software from a driver disc from Samsung and the program shows me the error as in image below.

"Magician is unable to find a Samsung SSD connected to your system, so some of the Magician features may not work correctly...." Nothing works :/

What I can do to solve that problem?

My specs:
Intel Core i5-4690K | MSI Z97 GAMING 5 | NZXT KRAKEN X61 | Patriot DDR3 4GB 1600MHZ 2x2GB CL9 GAMING ELK AMD | MSI GTX 970 GAMING 4096 MB DDR5 | Samsung F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 32MB | Seagate 1TB, SATAIII, 7200RPM, 64MB | OCZ ModXStream Pro 700W | NZXT SOURCE 340 White and 2x SSD Samsung 850 EVO 250GB

The answer is probably not to RAID them. These <adjective removed> proprietary ssd softwares won't work unless they recognize one of their own SSDs. A RAID 0 is not a Samsung SSD.

Ok so what your advise for me to do?
Keep Raid 0 or set AHCI in the BIOS and join the two drives in one? But it means that I could buy one SSD 500GB

I really like new speeds (Read 946 MB/s Write 1053 MB/s)

I personally am prejudiced against ever putting two SSDs into RAID0, so mine may not be the best answer for you. IMHO, the manufacturer is better able to use twice the memory, so a single SSD in the same line that's twice the size will be faster than two SSDs in RAID0. But that's just my opinion.

Or, of course, just give up on Samsung Magician.

The Samsung Magician utility does not support Samsung solid state drives in a RAID array. The Samsung Magician only supports single consumer retail ssd's. The fact was fairly well documented a couple of years ago. Nothing has changed.

I am not a fan of RAID arrays. The synthetic benchmarks look good for RAID arrays but in actual real life situations there really isn't much of a difference in performance between multiple ssd's in a RAID array and a single ssd.
