Hello friends, I’m getting ready to do some custom water cooling in my rig and mulling over adding in a third m.2 SSD to have all the slots populated and getting me a total of 6 terabytes of on board storage, I currently have two 2tb sabrent rocket gen 4, one is boot drive and the other is added storage and I wanna put the 3rd one in and test while I don’t have to worry about the glass tubes and water goin everywhere. The conundrum here is I’d like to run it as Raid0 so it all shows up as one drive, I know this would mean formatting my drives so the issue now becomes to backup my documents and copying my windows 11 install to a sata drive, and then retransfer it onto the m.2 array, so how does one successfully copy a windows install? Thank you for any input.

if u have a spare ssd or hard drive u can connect it to ur machine formatt it and use this thing called mini partion wizard to transfer os there should be an option on the top left which would say migrate os and u can do the same thing again but vice versa
