Hi I have this huge problem with my ssd pci express revodrive. I installed it as a bootable OS in RAID 0 and everything was fine until I upgraded from win 7 to 10.
The PC started to crash when idle and now it crashes 5 minutes after booting. I tried doing a firmware update but it didn't work. The ssd isn't even recognized by the ssd utility software. Tried a system restore but to no avail.
I lost my key to Windows since it was on my student email and I'm no student anymore. I also tried a rollback to 7 but it wouldn't allow me to do it.
I have tried a lot of things but I think I'm down to buy an old win 7 and reinstall everything from scratch. Any idea?
I'd just reinstall, yes. Doesn't sound like hardware problem.
I tried reinstalling win 10 and after that win 7 but even in win 7 I have a bsod. I guess the ssd is dead. Ill go back to hdd. Are the ssd SATA drive stable?

windows 10
found your problem right there.
That piece of shit is unstable on any and all hardware ever

Looks like you just got a dud bud. Any ssd should be "stable". I'm not understanding how raid 0 fits into this though. Raid 0 means you have 2 or more SSD's working together to go faster, but you have double the chance of losing your data because if either one goes out you're screwed. Anyway just clean install win10 when you get your new ssd. If sata is cheaper, go sata

Well I don't know either but it installed itself on raid mod. I think Ill stick with hdd for Windows and my games will go to a SATA ssd. I don't think W10 is ready for pcie.

Well you want to turn raid off. If you aren't using it, there's no point having it on, it just introduces compatibility issues. Nothing should 'require' you to be in raid mode.
And that's the opposite of what you want to do. Putting games on an ssd has minimal impact. You want your system installed on the ssd, and then if you happen to have room throw your games on there. PCIE shouldn't have any impact I think you just happened to get a bad unit
