Question R6E Omega not showing 1 of 2 m.2 for RAID setup ?

[digitalraven]

I finally powered on this PC for the first time with the following: (had these parts sitting around for a few years)

Rampage VI Extreme Omega
10980XE
64GB DDR4 Trident Royal Mem
2x M.2 980 Pro 1Tb inserted into M2_1 & M2_2

First thing i did before powering on was a bios update to latest release using flash button on back.

I wanted to configure RAID next and i may be doing something wrong here.

When i hit F11 EZ Tuning Wizard, i select PCH RAID, computer reboots and then i can only see 1 drive available to me to raid.
When i go back to AHCI mode, i can see both drives under 'Advanced\NVMe controller and Drive Information'

Did i miss a setting to turn on for both to be recognized in RAID?

I see an option under 'Advanced\CPU Storage Configuration'

DIMM.2, M.2_2 and U.2 currently disabled but looks to be for VROC CPU RAID only?

Why RAID?
What type RAID array?

Because i wanted to test performance with RAID 0.

Samsung 950 Pro 256GB RAID Report

Samsung's 256GB 950 Pro is an excellent way to get NVMe's low latency into your PC for less than $200. That made us wonder if using two drives in RAID 0 would offer a better value for enthusiasts looking for higher capacity and more performance.

So this board does not support PCH raid with M.2_1 & M.2_2 slots? I was able to get both recognized in BIOS but Intel RST does not show both to configure raid. Only shows M.2_1 SSD. Tried playing with CSM settings but no change.

Supposedly it supports various RAID levels.

But IRST seems to only speak to the single chipset M.2 port.
