Windows 10: Why does Windows 10 force both of my usb 3.0 ssd drives to work as usb 2.0 on usb 3.0 drives?

How long has Windows 10 been in production now? Too darn long for the same stupid annoying problem to still exist and for Microsoft to not have a fix rather than having community VIPs spout the same bs which never resolves the issue.I have used Windows 10 homeWindows 10 proWindows 10 EducationThey all have the same annoying stupid issue.I have the following External SSD drives.WD 1 TB SSD USB 3.0 External DriveSeagate 1 TB SSD USB 3.0 External DriveIn all 3 distributions of Windows 10, I have had the same issueEven though I'm plugging a USB 3.0 external drive into a USB 3.0 port... I always ha

Windows 10 - USB 3 drives not recognised since update of USBXHCI

Ever since the USBXHCI driver was updated I have been having issues using external USB 3 drives or usb sticks.

I have a Samsung T5 usb type c drive that was working fine for 6 months. But since the update, if I plug in via USB type c cable, then the drive light comes on, but the drive does not show up in windows explorer or device manager. If I plug the same drive
in via a type C to type A cable to a USB 3 port the same problem. If I plug in to a USB 2 port then the drive shows up, but is obviously slower than it should be.

I also have a USB 3 type A thumb drive, that if I plug in to a USB 3 port it sometimes works, some times doesn't. But plugged in to USB 2 port it always works.

I have tried every suggestion I could find, but none have worked:

• In device manager unistalled the USB 3.1 and USB 3.0 devices, and then restarted. Windows then reinstalls the device, but the same behaviour.
• I've turned off power manager management on the device, and in the power settings.
• Looked for new updates to drivers.

This is a desktop with an AsRock Z370 Extreme 4 motherboard running Widows 10 professional. The date on C:\Windows\System32\drivers\USBXHCI.SYS is 20 March 2020

I see some errors:

1.

Any ideas?

Is there any way to get official support from Microsoft?

how to make RAID-0 of USB flash memory?

I don't want "why?" as response so background first.

I have a PC with ultra fast Pentium 4 3.8Ghz, 4GB of RAM, 60GB IDE HDD as a boot drive and freshly installed Windows 10 PRO (PLEASE don't ask why) which was used only for Power Point presentation. Now it is assigned a new job. Not just presentation,
but also real time 480p 29.97fps video capturing which the processor can handle with ease but the Hard disk, It uses old IDE and runs at smooth 10mbps (bits not bytes) that's like 1.2 megabytes per second. so for 480i 29.97 fps capturing, which has bit rate
of 8,000,000bps which is 1 megabytes per second so in theory it should work right? NO! because this hard drive is a boot drive and constantly loading stuff so I get choppy and unstable video at the end.

now I happen to have set of 3 4GB USB 2.0 flash memories and the video usually eat up about 6GB after about 1.5 hours of recording per session.

I have 0, ZERO budget to get a new flash drive or get a SSD with SATA to USB convertor because this project is not mine.

Now to the question :

"How can I make a software RAID-0 of 2 (or more) USB flash memory which is removable."

Microsoft's in-house solution (disk management) does not allow me to make a RAID of removable drives so I tried to find a third party software that does this but am I blind I couldn't find one, and bitt flipping or what not to trick removable drives into
fixed doesn't work.

I hope that someone knows a great third party software that creates a RAID-0 of whatever drive it'd be the best but, enough babbling.

How do I make a raid-0 of 2 USB flash memories?
