This work-a-round will only work if you have a single drive in RAID mode though. However, others have also been able to use the Linux media, by temporarily changing the SATA mode in the bios from RAID to AHCI, then doing a backup or restore, and changing it back to RAID before booting the OS. As a result, using WinPE with the proper RAID controller drivers (usually IRST will work), is what is needed. When using RAID, the default Linux media does not have RAID controller drivers so will not detect the hard drive. The issue occurs when the system bios is using RAID as the SATA mode instead of AHCI. The default linux media can see both NVME and eMMC hard drives. NVME drives are not an issue with the Linux media.
