RAID is determined by your motherboard, not the hdd/ssd

I don't think you understand how RAID works. The storage media, (SSD in this case), is controlled by the RAID controller on the motherboard. RAID 0, simply put, is just a method for spreading data across multiple drives to increase performance. 

 

How? is the motherboard will directly make ur ssd to have raid or u will manually choose ssd when you make new pc?

 

Yes, you will manually select the drives for the RAID array. There is no 'Automatic RAID function' that will automatically put your drives into RAID. ALL HDD's and SSD"s can be put into RAID.

Sorry for the convoluted speech pattern.
