You'd normally use a software raid implementation these days, and Linux has a number of those. But yeah, dual booting can expose some quirks and filesystems and disk setup in general is one of the most prominent.
This. How an advanced use case is accomplished is not a point against a system's usability.
The point I was trying to make is that if you ever want to do something that is not covered with an out of the box install, it's typically far harder to do in Linux than in Windows (although my ~15 years as a windows sysadmin probably bias my opinion)
Windows is turning into a telemetry nightmare because about 10 years ago Microsoft figured out that they could sell ad space and monetize user data, so I'm trying to get off the platform before my LTSC install hits EOL. But I have to admit it's a hard path.
But in your example raid controller driver was covered in an out of the box install in windows. If it wasn't you'll still need to do pretty much the same. Also there was a couple of weird steps in your linux list like switching DE to run a couple of CLI commands and disabling AHCI for some reason.
