Hello, I am currently having an issue configuring my two SSDs in RAID 0. I am working with the following components:

Intel Core i7-5820k
Asus ROG Rampage V Edition 10 Motherboard
MSI R9 390 GPU
1TB WD Black
16GB DDr4 Hyper x Fury
2x Samsung 960 PRO 512GB M.2 SSD

So i know how to set up RAID volumes and configuring my BIOS by disabling CSM and setting my SATA controller mode to RAID. However, when i do that, only my Hard drive is being recognized under the Intel Rapid Storage Technology(IRST). When i unplug my hard drive, IRST no longer shows up in the BIOS. I have switched my GPU to different PCIe ports, updated my BIOS, and played with nearly every setting that has to do with storage, booting, and m.2/u.2. Nothing seems to work. According to my BIOS, under the PCH storage config, I have two SATA controller mode selections. SATA controller 1 allows me to set it to RAID, but SATA 2 says, " Due to Intel chipset specifications, the SATA ports from controller 2 do not support IRST, including RAID configuration. I am starting to think that my processor does not support RAID for my M.2 SSDs. Is there something I am missing? I want to get some input before i return one of my SSDs. Also, I read a lot of opinions that say RAID 0 is not worth it, risky, etc. I am aware of the risks involved and do not care. Just looking for a solution to this problem. Thank you!
