Just wanted to share this because I couldn't locate it online.
Specs,
GhostS1
Ryzen 9700x
2 PCIE NVME WD 1 TB - in Raid 0 (yes, I'm a bit greedy)
4060ti
1 TB Sata Drive HDD
650EI? GIG ultra aurora motherboard
Some info:
My raid went offline, but the second NVMe was listed as ready for the array.
I reinstalled the drivers using boot media, which restored my Raid and recovered all data.
I checked the Event Viewer for clues on why it dropped out, but haven't found any results yet.
Anyone else have tips on preventing or diagnosing this issue?
Also, I have a separate 2 TB SSD external that performs a full 1:1 copy of the raid 0 if needed (weekly backup).
Summary: Reinstall the motherboard Raid drivers (three times) to see if it comes back online before wiping everything.

Remove raid 0 and replace it with one 2TB NVME drive.

I handle audio/video tasks frequently, usually exceeding 200 gigs, and don't require reading and writing more quickly than two 1tb nvme drives or a single 2tb nvme drive.

No, perhaps not. The numbers are just benchmarks, but in actual use, the RAID controller adds up any advantages. This has been true for several years, though I haven't found anything to dispute it.

For audio/video work, the remaining components of the system have much greater influence than the storage drives.

If you're looking for "go faster" stripes (a play on words), check these resources:-

Not really, no. RAID0 was better for slower HDDs and it loses its advantages when burst I/O increases. Replace RAID0 with a big, fast NVMe drive. The Samsung 990 Pro is now affordable, consider the 2 or 4TB versions.
