I have an Asus P8Z77-V Pro mobo. On boot, I noticed one of the RAID arrays is degraded. This uses Intel's RAID software.

SMART doesn't report any errors on the drives in question, and I've seen this before with software RAID. I'd like to mark the drive as good and have it rebuilt (without destroying data, of course).

On my old system, I had Intel's Matrix Storage Manager. On this Asus board, I can't seem to find any kind of desktop RAID manager. No way to see what the RAID status is, etc. With the Matrix Storage Manager I could look at RAID information in Windows...but look at the Asus downloads, etc. I can't find anything that is a desktop client.

Is there really no desktop client for this board/chipset? I have the "AI Suite II" installed, but that doesn't provide anything for RAID.

I know there's the BIOS menu I can jump into at boot, but I was wondering if there is a desktop GUI that I missed installing and where I might find it.
