Thats not really true. The difference between RAID and AHCI is that with the RAID setting it initializes the RAID controller so you can setup arrays with multiple, but similar or identical drives, where as AHCI is just for single disks that dont need to be in a RAID array. They are both AHCI, but RAID has some extra "features."
