SSD RAID 0 "breaks" when I update the BIOS - RIVE

I'm having an annoying problem when upgrading the BIOS of my rampage iv extreme. I have two Intel 520 SSDs in RAID 0. Every time I update the bios, the RAID is "broken" and I have to reconfigure the RAID and consequently reinstall Windows and all other programs.
Does anyone know a way to update the BIOS without RAID 0 happen this fall? had several motherboards, with RAID and never wore this problem. Now with all RIVE BIOS update happens. For information, every time I updated the BIOS using the Asus EZ Flash within the BIOS installed on the motherboard.

Thanks for the help and sorry my English.

Yup you have to hit Del or F2 so that you force yourself into BIOS before it boots into Windows because that will mess up the data in your RAID array. Never let your guard down when rebooting from a BIOS update! Or else you will lose data in your drives. Button mash the BIOS keys to hijack Windows. and then properly set to SATA RAID!

Have these particular drives been used with other motherboard RAID? Or you first add them to a RAID array on this motherboard?
