alienware m14xr2, 1 hdd, bios sata operation set to raid?

I'm considering getting an ssd drive for my msata slot so I've been reading up a bit on things(will probably end up making a new post with questins aobut that later)

Anyway, right now I have a single hard drive installed in my laptop, but in my bios settings sata operation is set to raid. I enver touhed my bios other then update and adding a password to it. So this either got changed during a bios update(cant imagine that) or it is set as factory default. 

I got a few questions on that,

first, is it safe to change it to AHCI as that seems to make more sense to me with 1 hdd installed, or 1 hdd and 1 ssd when/if I install that or do I need to change settings in windows first?

second, why is it set to raid as factory default when there is only room for 1 hdd and 1 ssd or 2 ssd?
