I have 2 brand new patriot blaze 120gb ssd connected to an msi z97 kraft motherboard. I enabled RAID configuration in bios, restarted, made them into a RAID0 volume, and then installed a clean windows 10 oem onto them. Consistantly within 30 mins of reaching my desktop, I get a "a critical process died" crash and upon rebooting, I discover my raid has failed, and now only one of my ssds is showing up. I have deleted and remade the RAID volume multiple times and replaced both drives but every time I install windows, the same thing occurrs. Please help me get running again.

I would say install the proper RAID drivers from your motherboard website and install them even if windows 10 picks up it's own RAID driver. If they don't have windows 10 drivers download what ever the latest drivers are and use those (Win 7 and 8 drivers will work)

Also with RAID 0 you won't see much performance different and if one drive fails as you know you lose everything lol
