Hello, I want to make raid 0 with 3x samsung 970 evo plus SSDs, and I am very curious about VROC compatibility issues: Can I create such an array with 3 Samsung 970 evo plus SSDs and boot Windows 10 on it without any issue?

 

My system:

Motherboard: SuperMicro X11DAi-N

CPU: Intel Xeon Platinum 8280L x2

Hello MEhrm,

 

Thank you for contacting Intel® Memory & Storage Support.

 

As we understand, you need assistance with your Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC). If we infer correctly we will appreciate if you can review the following information:

 

·        Based on the Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) Supported Configurations (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000030310/memory-and-storage/ssd-software.html)

The supported Samsung* drives are the following:

 

Samsung

SM961*

PM953*

Please take into consideration that if you use a not supported SSD we cannot predict the performance and system behavior and unknown issue can appear.

 

·        We advise you to contact your motherboard OEM(original equipment manufacturer) in your case SuperMicro* to get further information about the tested and compatible hardware that will be compatible with your PC since they personalize and modify their VROC solution on their systems.

·        The compatible Windows* versions are the following:

 

Windows® 10

There should not be a problem to use Windows® 10. Please consider that your motherboard needs to supports this OS.
