Windows 10 on RAID 0 and Eyefinity

Chuffbaby · 14 Aug 2015 at 13:09

I was wondering if anyone has any experience with upgrading (currently Windows 7 Pro 64bit) when the system disk is a SSD RAID 0. I am using a Gigabyte Z97X Gaming GT motherboard.

I also have a triple monitor Eyefinity setup with two Radeon R9 290s in Crossfire, nice and stable at the moment on AMD Catalyst 14.502.

I would be grateful to hear from anyone who has negative or positive experiences upgrading on similar hardware.

Thanks in advance!

I haven't got your board but I run raid 0 and upgrade was fine, I've even rolled back to 8.1 and gone back to 10 and no issues.

Thanks Glanza. Much appreciated.

Well I went ahead and took the plunge and everything seems to have gone smoothly. Windows 10 downloaded the latest AMD driver as part of the upgrade. It only took a little while for me to realise that it had configured the screens as three side-by-side rather than Eyefinity as the desktop looked exactly the same, but this was quickly fixed in the Catalyst control panel.

I am still checking through compatability, but overall I like the look and feel of the upgrade, particularly the very fast boot time.

I will post back with any other info if I find any other glitches.
