RAID 0 Question

So I purchased a new MOBO (990FX Sabertooth Rev2) and a new CPU (FX 8350). Got them installed last night without any problems. I go in and setup BIOS set SATA 1-4 to RAID and 5-6 to IDE. Get to the RAID ROM screen and it wont let me define or view any drives.

The drives DO show up in BIOS/Windows(However unaccessbile in windows) so I know its getting the signal but in the RAID ROM its acting like theyre not even there.

It's been a while since Ive setup a RAID, so I think Im forgetting something. Even if I had the RAID setup on the last MOBO with no problems to speak of, would I need to completely reformat and wipe the drives in order to define the RAID on the new MOBO? Or should I be able to define the RAID in the RAID ROM and still have all my data (Just like I did on last MOBO/RAID setup)?

This is being done with 2 WD Caviar Blacks which are guaranteed working with brand new SATA cables. I AM able to boot into windows as Im also using a SSD as the boot drive. The RAID 0 was just for my huge steam collection.
 
There should be a secondary bios during bootup right after the first posting and to enter is you should have to hold something like CTRL A, CTRL C or CTRL F durring this to enter the raid setup.

I have read there are some issues with some of the bios revision for entering the raid utility, Check your bios version and update if needed.
