Download the Intel® VROC 7.6 or later driver release from Intel® Virtual RAID on CPU (Intel® VROC) Windows* Driver for Intel® Server Boards and Systems Based on Intel® 621A Chipset.
Unzip the package and find the F6-driver under F6-drivers -> VROC_ver_F6-drivers -> NVMe_iaVROC.free.win8.64bit.ver.
Load the F6-driver during the Windows* installation. See more information in Unable to See the RAID Volume during Windows* Installation.
