Ohla.. So I've gone through hell and back and can't get this to work. I've reinstalled windows like 5 times but nothing seems to work so now I'm looking for help..

I'm running a fully updated Windows 10 installed in Raid mode on an Asus P5Q-Deluxe motherboard. Bios is latest version.. Raid1.

Problem nr1:
In the raid setup my two 3TB drives (same modell) show up as one drive. All though it shows as 746gb instead of 3tb.
Problem nr2: In the bios the raid shows as 1 drive. But when I sign in to Windows they are 2 sepparate drives in Windows DIsk Manager...????
Problem Nr 3: when I run the latest version of Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver it says it's a successfull installation but after reboot I get BSOD saying Boot device is not working so that's not an option..

What am I missing, please help! Thanks in advance..

Thanks for the quick reply!

1. Intel P45/ICH10R with Intel® Fast Memory Access(FMA) support.
2. Intel Matrix Storage manager option ROM v8.0.0.1038 ICH10R wRAID5
3.Version: 14.8.0.1042 (Latest) Date: 12/14/2015 from; https://downloadcenter.intel.com/downloa...RST-RAID-Driver
4. Os is installed on a SSD not related to the drives I am trying to RAID. Would you like a picture of what the Intel Storage Manager looks like for my drives?

Thanks so much for taking you're time with this.. Spent so long fiddling with this, if I don't get it to work it will feel like I've wasted so much time..

Thank you so much..
I've downloaded the set from your website. This page is truly amazing btw, thanks for this!

I've tried to uninstall the drivers. I even reinstalled windows but it seems windows 10 comes with drivers that are version SARA RAID CONTROLLER DEV:2822 (13.2.0.1002)
Not matter what I do when I launch your installfile it says that that version is alredy installed, do I want to downgrade. When I choose yes, it starts installing but after a few seconds it crashes with the error: The setup program failed to install one or more evice driers, setup will exit. This happens after:
Copying file difxapi.dll
Installing Driver Sata raid controller DEV:2822
Version: 11.7.4.1001

Seems there is a conflict with your setup and the existing version. I don't know how really remove the existing one. Any sugestions?
Thanks!

PS. If I uninstall from the device manager without rebooting and then try and run your Setup.exe it says This computer does not meet the minimum requerments for installing the software.. Grrr, thought I could trick it..

Edit, read my post and it was a bit unclear.. Even if I uninstall the driver in device manager it's there as soon as I have rebooted.. I can't get rid of the 13.2.0.1002 driver. Whatever I do it's there after reboot..

Yes, uninstalled the software..

"Hard Disk" option doesn't work either.. "Windows encountered a prblem installing the driver software for your device". Error bla bla, no details at all just says it doesn't work..

So I'm following you're guide on how to prepare the windows iso in NTLite.
At this section: Optional for Intel RAID users: Removing the generic Intel RAID driver named iaStorAV.sys from the chosen Windows image:
When trying too:Uncheck the "Intel Corporation | iaStorAV.inf" section. The box goes grey and stays checked and I get a message on the right hand side; "locked by copatability. - Host machine (DESKTOP -UT3KUll)

Can I skip this step since it says it is Optional or do I have to do something about this?
Thank you..

My appologize, i figured out how to remove they grey marked fields and remove the drivers.. Now about to reinstall windows with my newly modded installfiles.. I'll be back to tell you how it went..

ARgh..,, saw this just now.. Spent another night with this and darn it still no raid.. I got the 11.7.4.1001 Drivers loaded into the win10.iso and installed that.. And it worked, got the drivers in the new windows but the raid is not working. It still shows as 1 drive in bios but in windows it's still 2 separate drives.. Sadness..

Do you recommend me to try again with 11.2.0.1006 Drivers or should I go and buy another motherboard? ;).. My wife is not happy with me spending so much time infront of the computer 3 nights in a row haha..

there you go.. pictures of both the inte rapid storage utility and from the Raid Bios utility.. Hope that helps..

Just dodged a bullet.. Thought that if I flashed the bios and got a later option rom that things would get better.. So I downloaded Intel-RST_RAID-ROM_v10.5.1.1070_TRIM-mod-acc-CPL0 and modded my biosrom with mmtool according to guide. And I thought it was a success.. At first reboot I got into my raid utility and it was 10.5 and I got my raids full size =).. But then after that it rebooted and the whole computer froze, not ossible to do anything other than ctrl alt del.. No bios no raid utility no nothing.. Pulled out battery and praise the lord I get into bios after that and reset it to previous version and now I'm back at square one hehe.. Should I maybe give up this version and reinstall windows on the one you suggested a few posts back?

But you said I need at least 10.5.* for the 3 tb disks to work properly..??
