Good afternoon,

Anyone know where I can find a win 11 raid driver for this computer. None to be found on the Corsair site.

I have the raid 0 set up in the bios however the windows installer only sees the two physicals disks and not the raid. With older systems Windows has needed a driver to be manually installed, cant seem to find one that works. Of course the Corsair website doesnt list the motherboard, chipset or much beyond what cpu/gpu it has. 6900hs/6800m.

Thanks for any help with this!
 
Thank you,

I've tried the x399 and x570 drivers version 9.3.0.00296 release date 12.8.21 with no luck :( I should have posted that up front.

I am hoping to find something more recent than a year old. I do very much appreciate the suggestion/help however.
 
I did some more digging and it looks like Asus ROG laptops with similar specs use this RAID driver. Their installer has an extract option and it lists the version as 9.3.1.00052 with a release in 2022

Hopefully that helps!
 
Awesome!!!!!

I will give it a try and thank you very much.

Another clean install of Win 11 is fun right? :)

I remember having to install win 98 5 or 6 times in one day, but of course, back then forgetting to reboot after installing/uninstalling, deleting/changing a .dll and so much more would fry your system.

The install from USB goes pretty quick and having a USB C Hub with an rj-45 helps too.
 
Hopefully the guy on the Corsair forums comes though. Thanks for the drivers, wish they had worked.
 
It's hard to believe Corsair isn't using the standard chipset raid controller.

I wonder if there are any goofy BIOS settings that need to be updated? You may just need to reach out to Corsair support at this point.

Yes they do have goofy bios settings as well, I have also posted on AMD and Corsair's forums.

One of the guys on Corsair's site says they have raid drivers but the user manual isnt ready yet and they fear someone could damage their system (I guess).

Been having all sorts of GPU Driver issues too.

I really like the hardware, the documentation and software/driver support is less than good. For example using the left side USB C port to run an external monitor will result in random reboots, using the right side which is direct connected to the gpu will not. I know this because someone on the Corsair forums figured it out and posted.
 
Solution here: https://forum.corsair.com/forums/topic/182072-a1600-raid-driver/#comment-1039524

So.... the standard driver download has two NVME folders and 1 SATA folder, each with 3 drivers in it.

Inside the folder labeled "nvme_cc" there are 3 folders with 1 driver each. All 3 have to be loaded in a specific order.

rcbottom.inf, rcraid.inf and rccfg.inf

Which from top to bottom is 1, 3, 2. Not very intuitive.

Hopefully this info will help someone else.
