Switching between AHCI and RAID on the Dell XPS 15 (9560)

This guide likely applies to other models and, potentially, even laptops from other OEMs that have NVME drives. However, I've only tested this on my Dell XPS 15 (9560) with the OEM Windows installation from the Signature Edition model.

Switching from RAID to AHCI

Switching from RAID to AHCI is significantly simpler than switching from AHCI to RAID. All that's needed is a successful boot to Safe Mode.

1. To set the default boot mode to Safe Mode, use msconfig.exe or open an admin cmd/PowerShell window and run:

myh-st

pip install ansible-tower-cli

tower-cli config username admin
tower-cli config password <PASSWORD>
tower-cli config verify_ssl False
tower-cli config
tower-cli job list
tower-cli config host http://<IP>:80

Create an SSH key in PEM format

I have not been able to use ssh-keygen -e to reliably generate a private key for SSH in PEM format. This format is sometimes used by commercial products. Instead, I had to convert the key using openssl.

# generate an RSA key of size 2048 bits
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 -f azure -C 'azure-dev'

# copy key to x.x.x.x and add to authorized_keys

myh-st

#!/bin/bash
# short code #
ESHOST="elastic" ; timeout 300 bash -c "until curl --silent --output /dev/null http://$ESHOST:9200/_cat/health?h=st; do printf '.' sleep 5; done; printf '\n'"
