Hi and first of all thank you for your work.
I've an X570 based motherboard with 2*TB NVME SSD configured in Raid 0.
Now i'm running Windows without any problem.
I'm evaluating to install Linux in dual boot on my system, but first of all, i tried the rcraid drivers with a live Linux Mint 19.2 (kernel 4.15, Ubuntu based).
What I did:

  • booted from live usb
  • installed rcraid package using the PPA
  • unloaded ahci kernel module
  • loaded the rcraid kernel module
    I can see on dmesg the module is loaded (even if on a "tainting kernel") but I expect that, in the same way it happens on Windows when the drivers are loaded, a new block device (like AMD-RAID on Windows) becomes available instead of the 2 separated drives.
    I also have the /proc/scsi/rcraid directory available so I suppose the module is loaded...
    What is the device that the module should provide?
    Thanks

nvme raid is not supported by this driver

See the same issue here after buying one NVMe recently. I expected it to pop up as a LEGACY drive as it would happen for any other SATA-based drive. However, I see the same behavior on Windows, so I won't blame it on the Linux drivers directly.

This issue is a duplicate of #25. Let's continue discussing there.
