Hi. I own 3 SSD (2x512 Samsung Pro and 1x256 Samsung EVO). I want to use the single SSD (EVO) to install the OS and the remaining 2 (PRO) in raid 0 mode. I create the RAID 0 first and then installed the OS (Windows 10) but after the installation ,the system doesnt recognize the 2 SDD (RAID 0), only the 250GB SSD . What can i do? Its that possible?

Thanks in advance for the answers

Right click on Start Menu and go to Disk Management.

It might popup asking to Initilize the disk. Just select MBR and ok.

If it doesn't check the list to see if a hard drive is listed with a Black line on it.

You want to right click on that part with the black line and make a new simple volume. just next though everything, at the end give it a name if you wish and make sure Quick Format is checked and select the drive letter you want it to be.

When adding a new hard drive or if you make a RAID it is unformatted so it won't show up in Computer/This PC and you have to go in, and either Initilize the disk, make a partition, and then format it.

If it isn't in Disk Management then we need to go back and find out what is wrong with it.

Need more details. You say you "create" the RAID 0, is it a hardware RAID using an actual RAID card, or is it just a software RAID built using windows disk management? Give us at least a ballpark idea of what's going on.
