I have a thread already open in another subforum, but I think I should have opened it here.
My goal is very similar, but...
1. NVMe drive on motherboard - OS drive not in RAID
2. 2xNVMe drive in dimm.2 slot - want to create RAID0 from these.
Windows 10 is already installed on drive 1. Drives 2 and 3 are empty.
When I enable NVMe RAID in PBS section I keep cycling in to BIOS i.e. it won't boot the system.
I have tried manually updating storage controllers for two disks in dimm.2 rcbottom, and then RAID controllers would show up in Device Manager and I'd update them with rcraid. Enable RAID for NVMe in PBS. No luck.
I have also played with the drivers from AMD site, and while installing RAID drives I got something like this: "windows is currently installed to an nvme disk and upgrading will make the OS unbootable. It also recommends to use SSD for boot disk.
Is it at all possible to keep first NVMe as it is and only setup RAID0 for disk in dimm.2?
EDIT: Just read this on AMD site: "This driver requires the operating system/boot device to be included in the RAID array. Users seeking a standalone NVMe boot device and a separate SATA RAID storage array should use the “SATA RAID Only” driver below."

So im working on a new build for a client and having raid issues. I have 1 nvme on the board, boots fine, get windows installed on it no problem. I run into issues with the sata ssd disappearing when I enable the raid. I can see the raid drive and dvd and the single nvme (C;) but not the sata ssd.
