Today I set up a RAID1 configuration on my Asus B450M GAMING-BR. I installed two 2TB SATA drives on ports 1 and 2, then accessed the BIOS to adjust the SATA settings and save the configuration. However, I couldn't locate any AMD RaidXpert2 support or a boot message with Ctrl+R for array setup. Someone might have an idea on how to fix this and use the RAID utility to configure it properly. My motherboard's BIOS seems outdated, but I'm not sure if others face the same issue.

The B450m gaming/br manual is extremely short, lacking details on ports for raids and exact configurations needed to function properly. I reached out to support, hoping a community member might have encountered the same issue.

It includes a fake raid. Avoid the onboard raid; opt for the software raid instead.

Actually, the controller might not be activated. I’m confused since the chip is an AMD B450, which should allow software and hardware RAID to function. It seems I might have missed enabling it fully, and there’s something missing that isn’t visible in the setup menu—especially the normal RAID option for all disks isn’t working with ctrl+r.

it's not a real hardware raid, it's just pretending with the chipset. You need a software-based raid setup. The AMD RAID relies on the CPU for calculations, so you don't need the fake system, just use SoftWare RAID.

Avoid using RAID on the board; instead, use software RAID in Windows. Enable RAID on the board to access the RAID management interface, but refrain from doing so.

I don’t have any software installed on the hard drive, so I won’t face issues when enabling it in the BIOS. For Windows, I’m unable to make it work because even though I create the arrays, the problem occurs during boot—not while using Windows to access the RAID settings. I think you might not be grasping my issue. My main concern is that I can’t find the menu to set up AMD RAID BIOS arrays on the motherboard.

The question asks about the purpose of a no-raid drive, the BIOS SATA menu settings, and what the main menu indicates. It seeks clarification on these technical aspects.
