Hello guys, I have a Asus Rampage IV extreme.

When i press F8 I see my 2 SSD's

Corsair force GT 120GB

I enter the bios > Sata control option> I put sata raid mod on > but I wont find any of my two SSD's down where I can see what each sata port have connected and I see to put raid mod on aswell.

Anyone know how I can put it in raid0 ? 😞

Just because you select the RAID option under the SATA options doesn't automatically give you and make your raid array.

It just gives you to option to enter the Intel Raid menu to setup your RAID Array and to do other things with your raid setup under the Intel Raid Utility.

When you turn on the RAID option, save and exit the BIOS.
After it boots you'll get a quick flash of an option to enter the Intel Raid Utility by Pressing Ctrl+ i

Make sure you have the proper Intel Raid Drivers on hand when you're installing Windows.

Please confirm which SATA ports your two SSD's are connected to. They will need to be on the Intel ports and ideally the 6Gbits/sec ports.
To help us help you - please provide as much information about your system and the problem as possible.

They are connected to the red ones.

Make sure it is port 2 and 3 not 1 and 2 of the red ones, as the first 2 are a different controller all together.

Also i had the issue where Intel matrix utility wouldn't load for me either pressing CTRL+I

I fixed this by going into boot options in BIOS and setting it to FORCE BIOS and it popped up 🙂

Also make sure your SATA configuration is set to RAID, save by pressing F10 and reboot and you will be greeeted with Intel matrix utlity and press CTRL+I

if it fixed it for you, please press the Add rep button 🙂
