I got two samsung evo 840 ssds and a 500gb hdd and I am trying to run in raid 0 and my motherboard is capable of doing so and I have plugged everything in correctly and downloaded the program needed to run raid 0 for my motherboard, yet there is no option that lets me access my drives or enable raid 0 or anything, Ive watched numerous videos and cant find any help. How and what can I do. I have a gigabyte motherboard. I also tried downloading the touch bios off the website and the website said It works but when I downloaded and extracted it and no change happened.
 
You don't install software, you make the change in BIOS first to set those two drives from SATA/AHCI to RAID mode, then you enter the RAID config before the OS boots and select which drives you want to be a part of the RAID, and which type of array you want.

It depends on your motherboard, look in the manual for the key combination to press to enter the RAID config once you enable it in BIOS. And yes, you will lose your information as it has to wipe the drives. RAID 0 splits the data between both drives.
