The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

its actually easy

My steps were much simpler after reading all the replies and the posts on other forums

1) Partition USB stick to 1GB (just so there are no issues if you use a large drive)
2) format partition as FAT32
3) copy the bootx64.efi file onto the flash drive under EFI\Boot\
4) UEFI boot off the drive
5) type in "setup_var 0x19D" (should return 0x0) << this is to check
6) type in "setup_var 0x19D 0x1"
7) type in "setup_var 0x19D" (should return 0x1) << this is to check
8) reboot and set your bios (if not set already) to RAID, then use CTRL + I to get into the Intel Raid setup, create your array, and off you go.
