Disk Settings
With the Disk settings you can select stripe size and choose which disks are RAID disks or the Spare Disk
as well as enter a name for each disk.
Stripe size
This sets the stripe size to maximize performance of sequential files in a storage volume.
Keep the 64K setting unless you require a special file storage layout in the storage volume.
A larger stripe size is better for large files.
RAID
Check the boxes of the HDDs you wish to add to the storage volume.
Spare Disk
Check a box to designate the replacement HDD for the storage volume. This becomes the
backup for any damaged HDD.
Add Spare
Press this button to add a new Spare disk.
Create RAID
Press this button to configure a file system and create the RAID storage volume.
Remove RAID Press this button to nullify the RAID storage volume.
How to Create a RAID
1. In the RAID Configuration screen, Set the RAID storage space as JBOD, RAID 0, RAID 1 or RAID
5—see Appendix C for details.
Note: If security is your primary concern, for 2 disks, choose RAID 1; for 4 disks, choose RAID 5. If capacity
is your primary concern, choose JBOD or RAID 0.
2. Check the hard disks you wish to create a RAID on. Specify Stripe size—64K is a normal setting.
3. Press
Create to build the RAID storage volume.
Note: Building a RAID storage space may take time, depending on the size of hard drives and RAID mode.
WARNING: Creating RAID destroys all data in the current RAID, and the data is unrecoverable.
