So I'm running windows 10, and this is the SSD that I got https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227710 Note it is 6 years old and I can't seem to find the right drivers for it on their website.

When I boot up my computer it show that it's reading RAID 0 and RAID 1, but when I go to boot options it doesn't show up. I've looked for it in disk management but it doesn't show up.

I got no idea what I'm doing, my friends telling me I should delete the raids and try to reformat but I'm not sure if that will work or not.

So I just tried to re-seat the SSD and now when I reboot the option for bios doesn't show up and it doesn't show the raids.

I would just return that one and get this instead. It's a bit faster and way more compatible...

https://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820147372



/e Btw, RAID 0 and RAID 1, can't just have more storage added to them. Your friend is right, you would have to reformat at the least.


/ee It would be far easier for us to help you if you do this...

Ya the problem is I got it from RL trades forum so I can't really return it.



Also I was reading I might have to install windows on it somehow first?

If you only have one physical hard drive, then you do not have RAID setup.

It came already set up in raid, I have no idea how to change that or what to do.
