Windows Server 2012 does not rise to GPT+Raid 1

Good afternoon,

The situation is this, there is hardware:

GA-Z77N-WIFI
WD RED 3Tb - two pieces
No

drive Need to raise a home file server.

The SATA controller switches to Raid mode and assembles the mirror.
I boot from a USB 3.0 flash drive onto which I uploaded the image of Windows Server 2012.
I select the flash drive as UEFI USB.
I palm off the latest drivers from the Intel site (I also tried from a gigabyte).
I see my mirror.
I run the command line and create 3 partitions 128Mb, 200Mb and 80Gb ... all according to the instructions ... GPT to see all 3TB in one piece.
I'm setting up an operating system.
I boot from the raid, but at some point Windows writes that it is experiencing problems and goes into reboot. Tried the same thing without GPT, same thing.

In what direction to dig? After installation, I tried to boot both from the UEFI HDD and from Windows Manager (such an option appears), and from Intel Raid, the result is the same.

I suspect that the problem may be in the BIOS settings of the motherboard, during my attempts to cope with the situation, I often saw the phrase that Windows will not be able to boot from this partition. Moreover, if I disable everything that is legacy in the BIOS and leave only UEFI, then I don’t see any devices at all, although in Legacy and UEFI mode I see my flash drive in two versions (by name and UEFI USB). In fact, I don’t even know in which direction to dig now. The bios for the mothers is the last of the non-beta ones, the one that the beta adds Secure boot and that's it, well, the mother is fresh, it seems everyone is already aware of the issue of 3TB disks.

Thank you!

If I were you, I would use soft-reid. Proku, IMHO, more.

Intel RAID does not yet support disk drives greater than 2.2TB - that's the answer apparently :(
