dlg and I had a look at this and we concur with Jon. You can move a single disk RAID 0 from behind the ami controller and use it as a single disk. What you can't do is going the other way around (from SATA controller to RAID 0). After reading your email we gathered it is what you did.
Can you please confirm that these were your installation steps?
