Bug Description

Nvme's configured with Intel VROC Technology aren't recognized as Raid.
Disks configured with Raid are listed separately in the installation.
Centos supports it. I guess Ubuntu doesn't support it.
I tested it on all server and desktop versions of Ubuntu.

I'm having the issue on 20.04 Desktop. I have 2 nvme drives in a VROC Raid 0 (HP Z6 G4), and the installer only shows 2 drives, not the raid container. Fedora sees the raid array.

Ubuntu Server 20.04 sees the array and will use it, the desktop 20.04 does not.

I have the same problem

The raid0 volume is created in setup, but Ubuntu Desktop 20.04.3 LTS does not identify the volume, only the 2 separate disks

This appears to still be an issue on 22.04 Desktop but not server.
