How to install Win10 x64 on AMD bottom RAID (embedded AMD RAID)?

I did it according to the instructions on the network - I slipped the last 3 drivers - 1,2, 3 - the installer still does not see the array where to put it. The array is created - RAID1 of 2x 240GB SSD. If installed, please indicate the sequence and version of the drivers

Ran into the same problem - trying to install Windows 10 Pro on an AMD RAID1 array on an Asus PRIME B450M-K motherboard.
Even after slipping the drivers, the Windows installer didn't see the array.
I experimented for a long time and only with the help of a very crutch method did I succeed.
I downloaded the drivers for AMD RAID - there are three folders
rcbottom
rccfg
rcraid
All instructions say that you must first install the driver
1. from the rcbottom folder - AMD-RAID Bottom Device (rcbottom.inf)
then
2. from the rcraid folder - AMD-RAID Controller (rcraid .inf)
and the array will be visible, but in some cases you still need to install the driver
3. from the rccfg folder - AMD-RAID Config Device (rccfg.inf).
In short, it all didn’t work for me, although, following the advice, I also updated the BIOS on the motherboard to the latest version and used different versions of the drivers.
Then I booted from a USB flash drive WinPE 10-8 Sergei Strelec (x86/x64/Native x86) 2019.12.28 Russian version
https://sergeistrelec.ru/winpe_10_8/181-winpe-10-8...
She didn't see the array either - it does not contain drivers for AMD RAID.
But in this assembly it is very easy to add the necessary drivers - use this method.
Installing Drivers
This method is designed to install controller drivers if WinPE lacks the necessary drivers, WLAN drivers, network, etc.
Note: This method is not intended for installing bulk drivers, video, etc...
Drivers must be unpacked, i.e. *.sys driver, *.cat security directory, and *.inf file
. SSTR/USER/MY_DRIVERS_x86. They will be installed automatically.
Subfolders are allowed.
I took and put all the files from the rcbottom, rccfg and rcraid folders into the SSTR / USER / MY_DRIVERS_x64 folder.
After that, I booted from this flash drive and saw that it turns out that I actually have two AMD-RAID Bottom Devices and two AMD-RAID Controllers in my devices . Perhaps it was necessary to do the procedure for step 1 of installing drivers twice and twice for step 2.
But I didn’t check this anymore and installed Windows 10 Pro directly from the WinPE 10-8 Sergei Strelec flash drive, all the programs for this are available in this assembly, the drivers were also installed apparently from this flash drive automatically.
Perhaps my experience will be useful to someone.
But I would spoil the physiognomy of the crooked programmers from AMD - I would take my soul away for my dead time spent on the battle with their creation.

Solved a problem.
I went to the official ASUS website, found all the drivers for the motherboard model, downloaded the SATA raid driver.
I downloaded it, unarchived it, put it on a USB flash drive along with Windows, during installation I selected the necessary driver from the folder with previously downloaded drivers. Done, Windows saw all raid1 disks
