Thank eComposer. I can see in the video, the menu I am missing in my BIOS options... sucks. I feel ASRock just needs to do a firmware update for the x99 Taichi. I built my entire computer around this motherboard. First I had to send back the i7 6800 due to it not having 40 lanes, meaning it could not even see both PCIe NVMe SSDs. Now that I have the i7 6850, I find out I cant even RAID it. FML, I am now forced to decide;
1. Send the ASRock x99 Taichi Motherboard and i7-6850 LGA2011 CPU back, and reorder (AGAIN)
2. See if I can get ASRock to update the firmware to enable the m.2 slots to RAID0
3. Figure out if a software RAID is an option.
4. Live with it, which sucks the most. As I paid for high performance rig. Just knowing my two m.2's aren't in RAID0 will fester and build in my mind as hatred for this situation and ASRock/Newegg.
