RAID Level 
You can set the storage volume as JBODRAID 0RAID 1RAID 5, RAID 6 or 
RAID 10
. RAID configuration is usually required only when you first set up the 
device. A brief description of each RAID setting follows: 
 
RAID Levels 
Level Description 
JBOD 
The storage volume is a single HDD with no RAID support. JBOD 
requires a minimum of 1 disk. 
RAID 0 
Provides data striping but no redundancy. Improves 
performance but not data safety. RAID 0 requires a minimum of 
2 disks. 
RAID 1 
Offers disk mirroring. Provides twice the read rate of single 
disks, but same write rate. RAID 1 requires a minimum of 2 
disks. 
RAID 5 
Data striping and stripe error correction information provided. 
RAID 5 requires a minimum of 3 disks. RAID 5 can sustain one 
failed disk. 
RAID 6 
Two independent parity computations must be used in order to 
provide protection against double disk failure. Two different 
algorithms are employed to achieve this purpose. RAID 6 
requires a minimum of 4 disks. RAID 6 can sustain two failed 
disks. 
RAID 10 
RAID 10 has high reliability and high performance. RAID 10 is 
implemented as a striped array whose segments are RAID 1 
arrays. It has the fault tolerance of RAID 1 and the performance 
of RAID 0. RAID 10 requires 4 disks. RAID 10 can sustain two
