We have multiple systems with an SSD RAID 1 (replication) setup with Win 10 OS in a network that has no Internet access. This RAID is created via an Intel raid utility.
The systems are periodically getting corrupt in such a way that the RAID no longer works after bootup…even if booting up to an individual drive. Usually, the first notification of the corruption is not from the RAID utility but rather form the fact that the system cannot access local SQL Express database. After a restart, the OS no longer will boot up.
Once the RAID settings on the individual SSDs are removed via the BIOS RAID setup, the system boots up with no issues. Anyone know why removing the RAID would allow bootup while keeping the RAID does not?
Is any way to get insight into what is causing both disks to become corrupt at the same time?
At first, we assumed the issue was due to being unable to turn off Windows Related Updates so created a task that runs 2x a day to turn off update to Edge, shadow copies, windows OS update, and Office updates.
Is there anything else on the RAID system or as part of a background process that may be causing the OS to become corrupt when the RAID is enabled?
