Raid issue Help

See image:

I have 3 hard drives:
1) SSD M4 = Win7
2) Samsung F3
3) Samsung F3

I am trying to raid Both samsung drive mod 0, I did that via Asus UEFI bois by switching the SATA mod to raid, then created the volum. After reboot, the SSD failed to load windows, so I switched back to ACHI mod,

In windows I can't create new raid, see the image, /??? how to fix this ?

Surveyor said:
Then likely some of your operating system files are now on the F3's so if you create a RAID array with them Windows will no longer boot as it won't be able to access the files.

I think you need to start again by re-installing Windows on the SSD with the F3's disconnected and with the BIOS set to RAID mode ready for the F3's to be re-connected.

Unless someone else has any other ideas?

thanks it worked. much appreciated

****ing stupid windows :rolleyes:

wasted 3 hours on updates, meh, the hard way to learn a lesson.
