Hi Fernando,

After doing a clean new installation of Windows 10 64Bit again, and installing my drivers and some software after a reboot the RAID0 was broken again :S..
Please see the screenshot..

I have checked the SMART of this disk, with different programms, and they all say its ok.
I have also contacted the store for warrenty, and I still have 4 monts warenty on this failing drive, but I think the SSD is not dead I'm not sure..
What do you think ?

Thanks for the 64Kb tip, I will use this in my next RAID0 build..

Small update, I have reflashed my BIOS again. And did a factory reset and everthing.
Created an new RAID0 array with 64KB and installed Windows 10 Pro on it again, and after second reboot after installation got BSOD and my RAID Array failed again. (the same SSD, just like in the pic. above)

Does anybody knows whats going wrong ?
Should it be the SSD, or the Bios is not correct ?

When I see this topic, you have posted before somewhere else, and check in the list the following :
ASUS P6X58D Premium MB Intel X58 Intel RST RAID ROM v10.5.1.1070 failure Raid array cannot be initialized (black screen)

But I dont have a black screen, like in this discription, als well I'm not running Intel RST RAID ROM v10.5.1.1070 but Intel RST RAID ROM v10.1.0.1008

Maybay this is an older test or other bios mod created by someone else ??

Hi,

Ok thx for the fast response !

Should dark boot nuke be a good option for fully erasing my ssd's ?? (http://www.dban.org/)
Or do you reccomend another tool for formatting ??

I have recreated my array multile times already, and reinstalled windows..
The only thing i haven't done yet is fully erasing formating my ssd's..

Hi Fernando,

thx for the advice,

I couldnt get HDDErase 3.3 working, it never sees my SSD's. (even in IDE mode or AHCI mode)
So i have used DBAN for a full erase, and then used HDDTune for a Zero wipe, and a secure erase with Parted Magic.
So I thought my ssd's are fully formated..

Then I have created yet again a new RAID0 array, and after install of Windows 10, and second reboot my second SSD has an Error Occured. (see previous pic.)

The Intel SSD Toolbox couldnt secure format my SSD's, it was unable to secure erase them.. (was complaining about replugging the drive's, I did that many times but didnt work)

Hope you can help me out..

Thanks again in advance,

Hi Fernando,

Im checking the disks once again, with Full Diagnostic Scan from intel SSD Toolbox.

I still dont understand why I can use Secure Erase.
Please see the screenshot from Intel SSD Toolbox. (I have unplugged and plugged my ssd's in again, but didnt work)
I've got this problem with both my 330 SSD's..

Hi,

I will try that again, and a little longer..
Will post results here asap.

Thanks in advance,

I've unplugged the sata power cable for several times several minutes. But no succes..
Whats going wrong here :S..

I'm thinking of flashing my bios back to original, and see if the problem then still exists..

I've provided the BIOS i'm currently running in this post. maybay an expert can see if there is something wrong modded on it ??

Hi,

Many thx for checking the BIOS..

I've just flashed back to Origninal BIOS, and created new RAID0 array, installed Windows 10 again, and everything is running still normal and good.
When got the modded bios, my second SSD had problems already in the RAID manager by this time..

Very strange, but with origninal it looks like its running fine now, but like you said that could not be the problem.. ?

UPDATE :
got a BSOD again, and SSD failed again in intel RAID bios..
So to be sure, indeed like you said its not the bios..

Gonna send this SSD to RMA ASAP i think..
Strangly SMART doesnt show any sings of strange numbers guess, I will post the SMART here soon..

After creating a new RAID0 array with my other X25-M SSD, it all works fine..

I've started RMA today for the defecte 330 SSD today, wil post update here when its fixed..

Thanks for all your help so fo far Fernando !
