I tried a few other things, I can't get it to boot in RAID mode, It just comes up with the boot device is not fully supported change your settings message, which seems to be UEFI since I have a cursor. I've tried legacy doesn't do anything, disabling it just causes it to be automatically re-enabled.

I flashed the bios to the one I created, however when I try and boot it gives me a compatibility message telling me to adjust my CSM setting. I played around with it but nothing changes.

Is the OS with the customized Win10 image already installed? If yes, have you installed the OS in UEFI mode (working with the "Guimode Partition Table") or in LEGACY mode (using the old Master Boot Record)?
Can you get access to the Intel RAID Utility at all (maybe from within the BIOS)?

No I haven't installed anything, the two drives just have my old RAID array with Windows 7 on it, I can't access any utility. Another thing, when I set it to RAID more all SATA drives are not able to be booted from, it's like I need to set up which is in RAID and which isn't but it isn't letting me do so.

Please remember: After having flashed a new BIOS (no matter if original or modded) onto an Intel RAID system you have
1. to enter the BIOS and choose the option "Set all settings to DEFAULT",
2. to set the SATA Controller to "RAID" mode,
3. to save the BIOS setting changes,
4. to turn off completely your computer for ca. 1-2 minutes,
5. to restart your computer and to enter the BIOS again,
6. to do the other previously used special settings and finally
7. to save the latest BIOS changes again.
After having done all that, you should try hitting CTRL+I while booting.
If you cannot get access to the LEGACY mode Intel RAID Utility this way, enter the BIOS and search for the "Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology" option (it may be within the "Advanced" > "Storage Configuration" section.

I set everything back to default, set it to IRST RAID, saved and rebooted. I just get the "The Bois settings do not fully support the boot device" and that I must change my CSM setting. I turned the system off for a few minutes and same message, I changed the CSM settings all the legacy, same message. I set it to RSTe mode, then I can get into the RAID utility, I set all drives to non-raid and then reboot and set it back to RST, same message. There is also no section to enter the utility, just the Intel(R) Rapid Storage Technology (or something like that) setting to change form RST to RSTe.

That was not a good idea, because this way you may have lost all your RAID0 data.

This has to be set to RST, if you want to use non-Enterprise Edition Intel RST drivers and RAID OROM modules.

I know that, I didn't want my data. I'll set it to RST mode again and look again for a utility. But if that doesn't work then I am not sure, seems like that bios might just not work with my motherboard and\or my drives, I could update the firmware but I don't think that would have an affect because it's not even loading the utility.

@Dark Light:
Maybe you have done something wrong while trying to get the Intel RAID ROM v11.2.0.1527 into your mainboard BIOS.
Can you attach the orignal and the modded BIOS (has to be compressed by using Winzip or WinRAR)?

Sure, here it is. I'll try looking through the bios again tomorrow and let you know.

@Dark Light:
Thanks for the attached modded BIOS file.
The Intel RAID ROM v11.2.0.1527 has been correctly inserted into the BIOS, but will not support the TRIM in RAID0 feature for your system.
If you are using SSDs as members of your RAID array and want TRIM support, you should integrate a TRIM in RAID0 modified Intel RAID ROM module.

Do you mean a bios version and driver that supports TRIM or to modify an existing bios?

What I meant is: If your RAID0 array members should be SSDs (and not HDDs), I recommend to flash a BIOS, which contains a TRIM in RAID0 supporting Intel RAID ROM module. Such modded Intel RST RAID ROM v11.2.0.1527 is available, but not within your currently used BIOS.

I am using 11.2.0.1527, so will that bios version support TRIM?

Hi,

I have re-read the some of the threads and I am still a bit confused, do I have to mod the bios module to get TRIM support in 11.2.0.1527? But wouldn't I get better performance with the new 13.1.0.2126 bios? Also if I did change the bios to a newer version would I have to recreate the ISO, couldn't I just use the normal method of adding drivers in the installation method since the ones I would be using would be newer than the ones that are already in a install image?
