How to set up RAID in my system

I'm looking to setup a RAID 1+0 in my Alienware system. I have 4, 1tb hard drives. I have my BIOS set to RAID but when I go into disc manager it won't let me do a mirrored drives. Only simple, spanned, and stripped.

Any help or walkthroughs would be greatly appreciated.

That's a great write up, I wish it worked for me. I have an Aurora system, I get to the F10/save/exit/reboot. but then I never get prompt to enter the Intel® RAID Option ROM utility. 

My Bios is A11 if that matters. Maybe I'm just missing something. 

Thank you for your help.

You need to press and hold the "Ctrl"l key while tapping the "i" key. Start pressing it from the moment the computer turns on.
