RAID HDD 3.5 T5820
Good morning, I want to do RAID0 with two HDD 3.5 in my T5820 system with Windows11, according to Dell I can not and I get the following message when I look for the Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver in the support page
(This driver is not compatible, This driver is not applicable for 2SP61S2 with Windows 11. You can search for a similar driver for this device or check to see if this driver is compatible with another device), can I force the installation with the driver downloaded directly from the Intel page or do I have another way out?

Hello, it is solved.
If CRTL+I does not work, go to F12 and enter the device configuration sub menu.
There is the VROC ¨BIOS¨ to configure the NVME and HDD separately.

Hello, I give more details.
My system works with 4 nvme units on a DELL expansion card.
Now, I want to implement RAID for the 3.5 HDD, I have confirmed that in the BIOS the RAID mode is ON, the disks are recognized by the BIOS and by Windows, the problem is that I can not access with CTRL+I Anything else I should do?

OP, Just in case your question was not answered. I went through some of these struggles as well. You have to configure the BIOS correctly, there are settings under more than 1 menu heading, and the options are not as self-explanatory as they initially seem. Additionally, you may need a VROC key to raid your HDDs, I can't remember for sure. I was able to get the drivers installed and the RAID configured on mine without the VROC key but a countdown timer started and after x number of days the RAID would supposedly cease to function unless you installed a VROC key, which I opted not to do.
