I've set up my hard drives in a RAID 0 configuration, but I accidentally switched the settings to AHCI. Now that I've tried switching back to RAID, I'm facing some issues. It shows that my RAID 0 volume has failed, with one drive detected as a member disk and the other as a non-RAID disk. Even though both drives are recognized in Windows when I set it to AHCI, I can't see the RAID volume when I switch back to RAID, and it only shows one drive in Disk Manager. I'm unable to access the partition volume under RAID, but I can see it when in AHCI mode. I should mention that I'm booting Windows from a separate SSD. Any tips or solutions?

Hey, about that TestDisk you mentioned—could you link a tutorial or guide on how to use it? I really need something easy to follow. Thanks!
You might want to try using some third-party recovery software, like TestDisk, to recover your data or attempt to rebuild the array. Just a heads up, if one of the disks has failed or if there was a problem with the RAID controller, you could be out of luck since RAID 0 doesn't have any data redundancy.
Honestly, everyone gets excited about RAID 0, but it's all fun and games until you lose all your data. Just saying, once you go through this, you'll probably think twice about using it in the future.
