Is it meant as contra Linux though? Or just pro RAID?
- userbinator 10y agoRAID on a machine with a single SSD (and no provision to add another)? It'd make far more sense if the BIOS was setup so the RAID option was always disabled. Edit: it'd be rather amusing and saddening if this whole controversy was caused merely by someone misunderstanding/misreading a perfectly sensible requirement to disable the RAID mode, and instead disabled the other options. Given the level of communication fluency among some programmers, I would not be surprised if this were the case; and the fact that the machine still boots into Windows because it has drivers might've let this slip past QA...
- sveiss 10y agoThe choice seems to be between AHCI and sorta-NVMe, with the latter enabled in 'RAID' mode. Sure, real/standards-conforming NVMe would be better -- and wouldn't require driver shenanigans in either Windows or Linux -- but there should be a performance advantage to 'RAID' mode in this case.

- josteink 10y agoIf it was meant contra Linux, it obviously failed as the Linux installer booted just fine.
