Hello! I have 2 hard drives that I want to set up in a RAID0 array and one hard drive that I want seperate. The raid array would have one OS on it, and the single hard drive would have another OS on it. However, my MSI Gaming M3 Z270 seems to only let me do RAID or AHCI, not one drive RAID and another AHCI. I would like to be able to switch between the two drives on boot without having to go into the BIOS and changing the boot mode. Is there a way to do this? Thanks!

Leave it in raid. Just because it is set to RAID doesn't mean all the drives have to be in a raid. it will still require the RAID drivers vs the normal AHCI driver but that is just how it is unless you get a seperate addin RAID card for the RAID then the single drive on the board in AHCI
