configuration to another or add another RAID controller to expand
your storage subsystem capabilities and capacity.
The DuraStor RAID controllers features
drive roaming.
Drive
roaming allows RAID controllers to keep track of which disk drive
belongs to which logical array if the enclosure is changed or the
disk drive is moved.
To change to a new drive configuration, follow the set up
instructions for that configuration as provided in

Note:
Changing operating mode topologies may alter your

During an upgrade, you are not required to move disk
drives around in the enclosure(s). The Drive Roaming feature
will locate those drives when the entire system is powered
back up.
