Hello everyone,

I am trying to setup a raid 5 . I'll list my system specs first then continue on with my issue:

Asus 990FX R2 Mobo (latest bios)
AMD 9590 cpu
EVGA GTX 970 gpu
16GB Corsair Ram (1600)
Corsair TX850 psu
Samsung 850 Pro 128GB SSD
3x Hitatchi UltraStar 2TB HD

I am running windows 10 off of the SSD plugged into the gray sata0 port. I have the 3 hitatchi drives in the brown sata slots. I installed windows and all the drivers. then went into the bios to enable raid on ports 1-6. the bios shows the drives and on boot it shows it scanning for raid drives and then quickly shows the 3 hitatchis and says press ctrl-f to enter the utility. I spam the ctrl-f buttons but it just continues to boot windows instead.

I tried both with my wireless usb keyboard and a wired usb keyboard to no avail. the drives show up fine in windows and i can format them in disk management without raid 5 though. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

Alright i sorted that one out by enabling full initialization for usb before post and then you cannot spam ctrl-f you have to press both at the same time right when the raid detection starts. Still having issues with windows 10 detection the raid 5 properly. I will keep searching for answers on that.
