HP ENVY Ultrabook 4-1130us - How to Access Raid Management Screen?

[ronaldgrn]

I previously removed the RAID from the 32GB SSD so that I could use a 128GB SSD drive for the OS, now that I no longer have the 128GB I wish to revert back to the 32GB and enable intel SRT.. unfortunately, I can't seem to be able to access the raid controller screen... There is no prompt to press Ctrl + I like there used to be..

How to I re-renable raid on my SSD?

Have you checked in BIOS to be sure Intel SRT is enabled? You might also try disabling Secure Boot, Save & Exit. Then do a complete shutdown, restart to see if prompt appears for Crtl + I.

There is no SRT option in bios... Also i tried disabling secure boot, still nothing. Does hp have a secret key combination or something to access the raid configuration screen?? (also updated the bios) .... Didnt help

Hi:

Please see if the info in this article is of help to you.  While it is for a different model, the procedure should be the same.

Problem fixed.. apparantly for that controller windows 8.1 is unable to properly interact with it... 

To fix it: Install windows 8.. setup RAID, then with it still active, install windows 8.1

Hi ronaldgm,
I am in a same boat as you were. Can you tell me if I install win 8 first than if I reboot I will get the option for raid controller ? And if you can explain me in little bit in detail I will really appreciate it thank you
