Since the 8 ports are spread across two controllers you won't get RAID anything from all 8 ports. If you use an M.2 port you will lose some of the SATA ports. If you want 8 drives in a single RAID5 volume, then you need to purchase a RAID controller card with sufficient ports to support it. The motherboard won't.
