Is there a utility for managing SSDs running as a raid array on a Windows server?

You'll need to be more specific about your OS version and hardware.

You wrote, "Windows server". Your OS version is Windows Server ?? ? Or something else?

What mother board/chipset, and processor are you using?

What model(s) of SSDs are you using?

Hello arcam,

 

 

We understand you're looking for a piece of software to manage your SSD RAID array.

 

 

Generally speaking, we can suggest using the already built-in Disk Management tool, or the Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST).

If you're using Intel® SSDs, you may also use the Intel® SSD Data Center Tool if they're DC drives, or the Intel® SSD Toolbox if they are Professional or Consumer models. However, since they're in a RAID array, you may only be able to see the array as a whole, not the drives individually.

For a more specific response, like @parsec mentioned, we will need more information from your end.
