    AMD X370 Chipset - NVMe boot device - Driver issue


    Mostly posting this in case others run into this issue.


    I have an AMD Ryzen system with an Asus X370 motherboard and two SATA drives in a RAID 1 array booting from a Western Digital NVMe stick


    Last night at some point the system - Newly upgraded to Windows 1903 with all available post upgrade patches - that the Standard NVM Express Controller driver wasn't sufficient for the NVMe stick not running RAID mode (disabled in BIOS) and installed the AMD-RAID Bottom Device and AMD-RAID Controller [Storport] drivers for it.


    It did this silently. I rebooted to cure a different issue and Windows 10 ended up in a boot loop.


    I only realized what actually happened after I restored a Macrium Reflect (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED) image of the C: drive (NVMe) from the night before the reboot, opened device manager and saw what it had done.


    I don't know of an easy way to figure out which AMD-RAID Bottom Device and AMD-RAID-Controller [Storport] are assigned to which device so I temporarily put the NMVe stick into RAID mode so it would boot and disabled RAID for the remainder of the SATA devices. This let me boot, change the driver back to the Standard NVM Express Controller Driver (because now there is only one AMD-RAID Bottom Device and AMD-RAID-Controller [Storport] listed in device manager) , disable NVMe RAID, enable SATA RAID and resolve the issue.


    Whew. Now, if it boot loops again, my first troubleshooting step will be to turn on RAID mode for the NVMe stick and see if that fixes the boot issue... Instead of spending an hour trying to get the system to see the F8 key being spammed so I could select the Reflect recovery USB stick and reimage the NMVe stick...
