Change RAID array to regular driver

I have a Dell Precision T5500 running Window-7. I want to get rid of the RAID array configuration, i.e. change one RAID (disk) to a regular driver.  I'd greatly appreciate any helpful guide. Thank you.

Hi Zqu99,

I assume you have RAID 1 (mirroring). If so, then simply turning off RAID in the Intel RAID BIOS (Ctrl-i) should work. I think the option is "reset disks to non-RAID".

How could I get to the Intel RAID BIOS?  With the PC on, I can only get to the "Intel(R) Matrix Storage Console" and see both RAID hard drives, but there is no option to resent disks / turn off RAID. Please kindly guide further.  Thank you.

During boot, watch your screen carefully. When prompted, press the key combination given (usually CTRL-i) to enter the RAID BIOS.
