You need an OS to install drivers.

What RAID card do you use?

If you are using the onboard RAID, you have to enable it in the BIOS/UEFI.

just to clarify things, a driver (in this case a RAID driver) is a small piece of software that enables your Operating System (windows) to communicate with the hardware(RAID-Controller).

A driver is installed onto an Operating system and stored on the same partition of that harddrive

if you want to create RAID volumes you need to go into the hardware settings or maybe your RAID-controller has some software that runs with windows.
