Have you tried formatting the raid in Windows ? I had an issue about a year or so ago where drives formatted exfat on mac weren't working in Windows but if done the other way round worked fine.

Can't see it in disk management to be able to format, just device manager where it shows a resource error and thunderbolt control center.
All disk management shows is the nvme and a couple of tiny partitions of it : /
Toying with disabling the 3090 to confirm issue but need to get video out of the motherboard to the monitor first. I've got DP/HDMI ports on it but none seem to want to register out of the box so obviously something I need to set somewhere (thinking bios but have too much work today/tomorrow to look).
CYOA
Finally formatted my RAID to exfat from mac os journalled after making a million backups for the past week.
Now it shows up on TB3 in windows but only in the Thunderbolt Control Centre - not in explorer. In Device Manager there's an alert icon and in Properties it tells me:
https://www.google.com/search?q=This+device+cannot+find+enough+free+resources+that+it+can+use.+(Code+12)+If+you+want+to+use+this+device%2C+you+will+need+to+disable+one+of+the+other+devices+on+this+system.+You+need+to+restart+your+computer+before+the+changes+you+made+to+this+device+will+take+effect
Which seems like a conflict between it and the GPU? Which would be a big suck.
Any more for any more?
I'd consider getting an SSD RAID as an upgrade but connected how ? Don't wildly want to ditch my B550 after all this but would consider an X570 and a separate thunderbolt 3 card if that would work and let me keep the current RAID (as I don't envisage getting paid 14 grand by my clients any time soon).
