x15 R2, change from BIOS RAID to AHCI

Hello I have an x15 R2. I want to change the SSD from 1TB that it came with, for two Samsung NVMe 980 Pro of 2TB each (4TB in total).

In my other Alienware PC I have changed from RAID to AHCI with this metod:

And had no problems, but this Laptop has Windows 11 and I want to know if this is still valid for this operating system?

I want to install Samsung Magician Software to monitor temperature and upgrade Firmware, but Samsung Magician does not work when BIOS is set to RAID, only works if is set to AHCI, so the method mentioned in the video allows me to change it without having to reinstall Windows, and this is a must for me.

Some ones knows if this is valid in Windows 11?

Hello after a lot of research I found a new video explaining how to change BIOS from RAID to AHCI in WINDOWS 11, without having to reinstall windows, an this allows me to install the Samsung Magician Software.

How to switch RAID or ATA mode to AHCI mode without reinstalling Windows

I hope it helps some one.
