Windows 10: Why doesn't putting 2 NVMe SSDs in RAID 0 double the speed?

Hey,

I wasn't able to find the answer for this anywhere. What are the reason that putting 2 M.2 SSDs into RAID 0 double the speed? Is there someone that can explain why? Also, why wouldn't turning on Rapid Storage Technology at this point make a difference?

Thanks for anyone actually knows the answers. I have my own guesses but I don't know anything for certain.

M.2 NVMe SSDs in Raid 0 array?

I am not using a RAID card - there are 3 M.2 slots on the mobo - slots 1 & 2 have Samsung 960 Pro 512 GB drives - slot 3 has a Samsung 960 EVO drive .
I can create a RAID 0 array using the 2 960 Pro drives - but it is not recognized in the Boot options.
Strip size was changed to the suggested 128KB after this pic was taken
I have been messing with the BIOS all night trying to figure this out - no luck

 

Will Raid 0 work on two Pcie 1x slots for double speed?

Just looking for fastest editing read/write speeds from 2 old Pcie 1x slots.

M.2 NVMe SSDs in Raid 0 array?

@essenbe - thanks for the video - it was pretty much the same instructions I had - with the addition of the d/l folder - I installed the drivers as suggested - ended up with the below pic - Drive 2 - unallocated space is the RAID drvie - out of frustration I decided to format the drive and when it finished the "can't install" deal was still there - again out of frustration - I hit NEXT and Windows installed to the drive <- Good News/Bad News -> Windows will not boot and the drive is not listed under boot options - BUT - progress is being made -break time - *Confused
